Survival Medicine Hour: Irma, Floods, Shoulder Dislocation

Hurricane Irma has wreaked havoc on Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina, and our hosts Joe and Amy Alton, aka Dr.Bones and Nurse Amy have now had two different homes survive destruction in a year: Their place in Gatlinburg on Ski Mountain, where 100 homes burned to the foundation last November as part of a huge human-set wildfire, and now their home in South Florida from Hurricane  Irma's winds. We'll talk about flood survival and give you some tips on what to do in the aftermath of storms like Harvey and Irma. Also, your shoulder is the most flexible of your joints, but also the least stable and most likely to be dislocated by trauma. Find out more about how to recognize and treat this painful but common wilderness and off-grid injury. Don't forget, Dr. Alton and Nurse Amy will be holding an 8 hour class on 10/21 near Knoxville, TN where they'll impart a lot of knowledge and teach a lot of hands-on skills!
