⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Training That Fills a Critical Gap
I recently completed Dr. Gregory Davenport's "Disaster Readiness for Medical Professionals" course through JGD Prepared Service, and I can honestly say it is one of the most valuable educational experiences I have had as a healthcare provider. This 25-hour AAPA-accredited program completely transformed my understanding of disaster response and preparedness. Even with my busy schedule, I was able to complete it within eight weeks. I was also able to view it on my computer and my smartphone!
What Sets This Course Apart?
Comprehensive Yet Practical Approach: The course brilliantly balances theoretical knowledge with real-world application. Dr. Davenport's four-session structure logically builds from basic preparedness concepts to complex medical interventions in disaster settings. The progression from "keeping yourself alive" to "leading humanitarian missions" felt natural and thoroughly engaging.
Expert Instruction: Dr. Davenport's 40+ years of experience in combat casualty care, survival training, and humanitarian missions shine through every lesson. His background serving in frontline operations in Mosul during the liberation from ISIS, as well as leading medical teams across multiple countries, brings unmatched credibility to the material. You are learning from someone who has experienced these scenarios firsthand.
Addresses Real Gaps in Medical Education: This course tackles what traditional medical programs rarely cover - how to provide adequate care when infrastructure fails, resources are limited, and your usual support systems are unavailable. The transition from controlled clinical environments to chaotic disaster zones is something most of us never consider until we find ourselves in such a situation.
Outstanding Features
Real-World Impact
This course not only taught me about disaster response but also changed how I think about preparedness in my daily life. I have already started implementing emergency preparedness at home and in my vehicles, and I have a much better understanding of how to prepare my family and community for potential disasters.
The humanitarian service preparation was particularly valuable. If I ever deploy on a medical mission, I now feel equipped to properly vet organizations, understand international travel requirements, and pack appropriately for austere conditions.
Bottom Line
This course is essential for any healthcare provider who might ever respond to disasters, participate in humanitarian missions, or want to be better prepared for emergencies in their community. Dr. Davenport has created something truly special here—a comprehensive program that addresses critical knowledge gaps while remaining practical and immediately applicable.
The 25 AAPA Category 1 CME credits are valuable, but the knowledge and confidence gained are invaluable. I wholeheartedly recommend this course to any medical professional serious about disaster preparedness and response.
Would I retake it? Absolutely. This course not only prepares you for disasters but also empowers you to make a real difference when communities need medical professionals most, as Dr. Davenport says…Service through Medicine!
