Week 1: Medical
The week started with a presentation by Timm Smith. In one simple exercise he highlighted the massive shortfalls with the current standard for the S.I.A. (FAAW). I was left shocked at the fact that in the relatively normal scenario he put me in I was completely powerless to render any assistance to the casualty due to a lack of knowledge and skill. His no bullshit approach to medicine and the ethos of “Don’t talk, act” set the tone for the week. The theory and practical lessons...

Here are a couple of points which anyone applying for the Ronin course may find helpful, I neglected to mention them in my first entry.
Innoculations: You MUST have Hepititis B jabs, it is a requirement for the course. Be aware that it is usually a course of three injections over 10 weeks. Don't leave it too late. Also T.B. most Brits will have been immunised at school, it's the one that usually leaves a scar. If in doubt check with your Doctor, you must have a Doctors letter or innoculation...

Right, here goes:
I have been harping on about getting people to review courses they have been on for some time. I am going to do it myself and see if it catches on!
Pre-Course admin
After initial contact with the UK office I was sent an information pack. It is detailed and specific about what the course entails and what is expected of the student.
