Frontline anaesthesia course

In a hospital, it takes more than just a surgeon to save a life. Anaesthetists administer medications during operations while also playing vital roles in pain management and intensive care.

That’s why we’ve expanded our training offering to include anaesthetics. Our new Hostile Environment Surgical Training-Anaesthesia (HEST-A) course is designed to improve the emergency anaesthesia skills of anaesthetists living and working in war or catastrophe.

To give participants the best learning experience, our faculty of anaesthesia trainers use cutting-edge teaching equipment and simulators – such as airway simulators and ultrasounds – to prepare participants for trauma in the field.

“Expanding the foundation’s course offering is a monumental moment. This is the start of something special.”
Dr Ian Nesbitt, Faculty Lead for Anaesthesia
