ICE – Immersion & Cold Emergencies

Emergency Care for Drowning, Cold and Immersion incidents

All ICE MODULES are focused on dealing with water-based incidents in a pre-hospital setting such as drowning, hypothermia, casualty rescue and post-rescue collapse.  The emphasis is on managing and treating casualties using minimal medical and survival equipment pre the arrival of better equipped medical teams. The ICE MODULES focus on developing practical skills in line with current clinical practice guidelines.  Students gain hands-on experience through both classroom practical’s and outdoor scenarios. Casualty recovery and management skills form part of this course.  While the course can be tailored to meet the requirements of special interest groups it is specifically designed for those who operate in or around water such as SAR personnel, lifeguards, paddle sport instructors, medics, water sports enthusiasts and mountain leaders.

There are three ICE modules ranging from BASIC to ADVANCED.
