In this episode, we dive into the fast-paced world of event medicine in remote Australia with Prashan Kuruppu, a rural generalist anaesthetist and Member of the Australian College of Rural and Remote Medicine (ACRRM) Assessment Committee, with extensive experience in Outback and retrieval medicine.

Beyond the clinical challenges, we delve into the critical role of teamwork, adaptability, and risk mitigation, as well as the immense satisfaction that comes with ensuring the safety of participants in these extreme settings.
