Street Medic Training Being Offered at the 6th Annual Mountain Justice Fall Summit
Coal River Mountain Watch and Radical Action for Mountain People's Survival (RAMPS) Campaign will be hosting the Mountain Justice Fall Summit. The Fall Summit will take place October 28-30 in Raleigh County, West Virginia As part of that summit, the Katuah Medics are planning a 20 hour street medic training. Training will begin Thursday night and continue through Sunday morning. Topics included are first aid/wound care, how to do an effective eye flush, and discussions on police weapons and tactics. Although further training is recommend, people with all levels (including no training at all!) are invited to attend. We also encourage folks who can't participate in the entire training to come out and support the training by volunteering as patients. We ask a $5-25 donation to cover the cost of materials and trainers, with no one being turned away due to lack of funds.
