Training & Competence
Defining competence for remote, hazardous work.
SMA aims to articulate what clinicians and responders need to know and do in salvage environments, and to support their ongoing development.

Competence, not just certificates.
Our proposed frameworks focus on demonstrable capability in context — clinical judgement, prolonged field care, logistics and teamwork under pressure.
