The next annual Pennsylvania MedWAR will be September 9, 2023 in Danville, PA.

Format:  The course will take place along the trails, forests, and waterways of the Susquehanna River Valley surrounding the picturesque town of Danville, PA, home of Geisinger Medical Center. Unassisted teams of three will compete in skills stations along an open circuit course. Fastest teams will complete as many of the tasks before time cut-off runs out. Scenarios will span a wide range of topics including rescue, improvisation, triage, acute care, and survival techniques. Racing is open to health-care providers, students, pre-hospital providers and other wilderness medicine enthusiasts! Plan for a day full of exciting challenges (both physical and mental), food, drinks, fun, and awards! 

Participants: designed for medical residents and students but open to pre-hospital providers, nursing/AP's (and students), and any wilderness medicine enthusiasts! We are capped at 15 teams of three- we had waiting list year so don't wait to sign-up!
