Some PHRM sites may only be able to provide one component of the Pre-Hospital and Retrieval Medicine Training Program, such as pre-hospital or retrieval experience, or a site may be exclusively road-based. In these cases, trainees are required to complete an additional placement at another CCPHRM-accredited site to ensure all components of the Pre-Hospital and Retrieval Medicine Training Program can be completed. Trainees may secure their additional placement before or after enrolling in the Pre-Hospital and Retrieval Medicine Training Program.

In addition, some sites may be accredited for 12-month positions as the average caseload available per registrar would not enable trainees to meet Pre-Hospital and Retrieval Medicine caseload requirements within a 6-month placement at the site. 

It is the trainee’s responsibility to ensure they are aware of their training site’s Pre-Hospital and Retrieval Medicine accreditation status – pre-hospital only, retrieval only, or full accreditation - prior to enrolling in the Pre-Hospital and Retrieval Medicine.

A list of CCPHRM-accredited sites, and any specific placement requirements pertaining to them, is provided below.

  • Pre-Hospital and Retrieval Medicine training sites accredited for the pre-hospital component ONLY
  • Pre-Hospital and Retrieval Medicine training sites accredited for the retrieval component ONLY
  • Pre-Hospital and Retrieval Medicine training sites with full accreditation (both pre-hospital and retrieval components)
  • Site Accreditation Process
