Extreme Care - Expeditions

Extreme Care expeditions form the heart of our mission to bring much needed medical supplies and offer clinics to those in need in remote areas of the earth. We will also use this opportunity for the team to explore peaks and rivers of the area.

Teams will consist of an expedition leader, A team doctor and team members. The head doctor will be responsible for all aspects of administering care and medical supplies and will delegate tasks to other team members. The expedition leader will be in charge of the trip and will be highly skilled in his or her discipline.
