He has been a program manager of a university based disaster medicine research and training center where he was published in peer review journals and has worked for the US Army in training and curriculum development for disaster and medical response and civilian interface. Evan has also functioned as a course coordinator for a university based EMS training center where he implemented curriculum using the cutting edge of real world simulation training. Evan has written and implemented training programs from small municipal tabletops to multijurisdictional/multi-agency full scale exercises. In order to keep current and on the cutting edge of operational and tactical medicine, Evan has been traveling and training around the globe and currently deployed in Iraq functioning as a remote site paramedic officer.
The presentation will identify the risk factors of working with locals in a war zone and how those factors are mitigated. How we decide what to test for and how we do the testing in an austere environment.
