My name is Jennie Anderson. I am a medical anthropologist, wilderness medic and mom. Medical Anthropologists work in the realm of public health. Mainly doing ethnographic research. Which is where you immerse yourself in a population that is not getting the health care that is needed. You live amongst them and learn how they do things. What they eat, what their remedies are. And see what can be done to help improve their mortality rates while preserving their unique culture. I've also done a lot of advocacy work. When someone isn't able to speak for themselves and understand what their doctors are saying and they don't have family to go with them to their appointments, I'd accompany them, take a lot of notes so that I could keep doctors, nurses, care providers in whatever facility they were living in would all be on the same page of what the treatment is and make sure they were being cared for. A wilderness medic is an EMT or Paramedic that then gets additional training to work in austere environments. Places that you don't have a hospital readily available. Such as, if someone is backpacking and they're days away from anything, they went to a protest and it turned into a riot, or there was a natural disaster. A couple of years ago I started taking my IRL business and putting it online so that I could reach more people and have a flexible schedule. I have grown a following to about six thousand. Then I'd start deleting people, or delete my entire platform and start over. Because I would get these awful DMs. The most inappropriate stuff. I was pretty ready to throw in the towel on social media and just go take some contract work. Then my son told me about Skool. I didn't think it would be any different. But I decided to try it out. I am very impressed with how it is going. Best platform on the internet. To sum up: I'm Jennie. My community is Field Notes. I teach people emergency medicine for austere environments.
