Remote Medical Services and Kits

CPS contracts with Medical Advisory Service (MAS), a service of MedAire, Inc., to provide NSF-funded researchers with remote medical services. While in the field, participating researchers have access to physicians 24 hours a day, 7 days a week via telephone, satellite phone, telex, HF radio, computer or facsimile. CPS will also provide participating researchers with a field first aid kit including medications. This kit will be issued to the Principal Investigator or head field team member, and will become their responsibility for use in the field. The kit must be returned to CPS at the end of each field season. CPS will maintain the kits and prior to reissue will update the medications and make sure the kits are fully stocked.

Additional services can also be arranged if necessary.
