Medical Considerations April 7, 2021

SEMINAR: Medical Considerations
On April 7 @ 7:30 pm Dr Jan Hirsch, s/v Sweet Pea, will offer a Zoom presentation regarding medical provisioning upon sailing across the Pacific to Kauai. The invitation to participate will be sent to you via the email you provided when you registered for the SHTP.

In the meantime, find additional resources on the SSS site, specifically here:

https://www.sfbaysss.org/resource/doc/anderson-odom-medical.pdf

https://www.sfbaysss.org/resource/doc/Mikes-med-list-and-note-2012.pdf

Dr Jan is in the process of updating Dr Mike's letter to your doctor, so don't use that. An updated letter will be provided to you asap. Apparently doctors are more reluctant to prescribe opioids nowadays, so Vicodin or Percocet will probably not be included in your sail bag this trip. Sorry, kids.
