The David Nott Foundation<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The David Nott Foundation was established with a simple mission: To provide medical professionals in conflict zones with the surgical training needed to save more lives. They strive to empower surgical teams in countries affected by conflict to better care for their communities, creating a model of sustainability and independence.<\/p>\n

Co-founded and led by renowned British surgeon Professor David Nott, the Foundation\u2019s Teaching Faculty travels to surgically austere regions around the world to deliver their world-class, 5-day Hostile Environment Surgical Training (HEST) course. Since 2015 1,000 doctors have been trained from 30 courses in nations\u00a0including Somaliland, Palestine, Syria and Ukraine.<\/p>\n

The David Nott Foundation will be holding a condensed, one-day HEST course on Thursday 15th December at AfSM Tripartite Conference. The course will cover a wide range of surgical fields such as cardio-thoracic trauma, vascular surgery, neurosurgery, obstetrics and orthopedic surgery.<\/p>\n
