Compulsory seminars
In order to prepare you well for your assignment, three preparatory seminars are compulsory:
1. basic seminar: The basic seminar deals with topics such as infectious diseases, paediatric health and health maintenance in the field.
2. project seminar ‘Clinical work with patients’: This is about country-specific preparation for your work in the upcoming project.
3. safety seminars: Here, we show you all the relevant safety aspects of our projects.
You will receive the relevant dates and information from our deployment planning department as soon as your deployment date has been finalised.
The seminars are also a good opportunity to exchange ideas with other Swiss or German Doctors - including those who have already been on assignment.
Relevant literature for preparation

The Blue Book contains medical guidelines for our projects. It gives an overview on all relevant diseases and treatment in our projects and supports you in preparing for your assignment.
MEDBOX
The MEDBOX is an open-source library with documents on work in humanitarian emergency situations that can be used worldwide and gives you - and us as an organisation - the necessary access to up-to-date medical literature.
