The College is very pleased to welcome our 2021 Trauma on the Border event partners Charles Sturt University and Philips, as well as event sponsors Zoll and Edith Cowan University.

Now in its eighth year, Trauma on the Border is Australia’s leading conference specifically focusing on trauma challenges faced by paramedics in various situations. This year’s theme, Land, air and sea – conquering unique trauma challenges, features a distinctive conference program that discusses trauma rescues underwater, on a ship, in extreme cold temperatures and even in a zoo.

The one-day conference will be delivered as a hybrid event – available online and in-person. Watching it online means delegates from anywhere in Australia will be able to tune in remotely and watch the full conference with the opportunity to post questions to presenters.
