T4 Course

Polish Medical Mission invites you to the travel medicine course organized in Krakow: “T4 – Travel, Trauma, Tropics, Tactics.

The detailed topics cover behaviors in situations threatening health or life during travel, and exercises are conducted in small groups based on simulation scenarios.
