Our Mission
St. Luke’s Trauma Center is pleased to offer a three-day conference on Wilderness Medicine at beautiful Skytop Lodge. Wilderness Medicine is the developing field that involves not only providing care to wilderness travelers, but also working in other hostile environments, environmental emergencies and outdoor toxicology. Whether interested in exotic expedition medicine or more familiar subjects like poison ivy, our conference has something to offer. This conference is designed to educate physicians, nurses, prehospital personnel, and others on the interesting and fun topic of Wilderness Medicine.
