摘要
Retrieval medicine and pre-hospital care in remote Australia are challenging, requiring competencies in major trauma, high-risk obstetrics, critical care in adults and children, severe mental health-related agitation and envenomation. They keep a city-based retrieval and pre-hospital care doctor on their toes. Cultural fluencies to enhance care for Aboriginal and remote communities are critical during the long hours taken for the patient journey from the accident scene or clinic to definitive care.
