Episode 49 - MIKE TAYLOE - Real-Life Emergency Medical Situations From the Field and Take-Aways on Dealing with Unexpected Accidents
Description
Mike Tayloe is the co-owner and Director of Operations of Finns West, an outdoor company that provides Wilderness First Aid courses and Emergency Action Plan development for fishing lodges, outfitters and guides. Tayloe has combined his profession as a paramedic with his extensive background as a professional international fly fishing guide to create a much-needed, oft-overlooked service for the travel industry. Tayloe joined us on an early episode of WAYPOINTS (Episode 2), and he’s back in Episode 49 to discuss how we – as traveling anglers – can better prepare for emergency medical situations and avoid accidents and emergencies when traveling. He’s going to share a number of real-life emergency events to analyze what went right or wrong, talk about key pieces of medical gear to bring along when traveling, discuss what to do when the unexpected occurs, and define the importance of having a medical and evac plan when traveling off the grid or to distant waters.
