After a COVID-enforced hiatus, this is the fourth RWAC to be held in New Zealand.
The aim of RWAC is to prepare anaesthetists for work in low- and middle-income countries (“the real world”) and a variety of humanitarian aid situations.
The course consists of a series of interactive lectures, case-based discussions, practical equipment sessions and in-theatre teaching of drawover anaesthesia. A simulation session is also planned.
Some topics include:
The number of participants is limited to 20 to maximise interaction and hands-on learning. To participate in theatre teaching sessions, you will need to be registered or eligible for registration in New Zealand. For non-NZ participants, we will assist with the free registration process, but the Medical Council of New Zealand makes the final decision.
