[Gustavo E. Flores]

If a trauma surgery rotation is not available, you might consider also
applying for a rotation in emergency medicine. Some of them offer EMS
ride-alongs for MSIV. 

The Society for Academic Emergency Medicine has a very comprehensive
residency catalog (www.saem.org or
http://www.saem.org/saemdnn/Home/ViewByRole/MedicalStudents/ResidencyCatalog
/tabid/149/Default.aspx). The SAEM information page and residency catalog
will tell you who to contact and what to expect from the rotation.

AAEM also has a residency catalogs in http://www.thirteen78.com/aaemres/

Dear List,

I am a fourth year medical student at St Georges Hospital in London,UK 
who has developed a large interest in the field of trauma, in 
particular the area of pre-hospital care. I have already spent time 
with HEMS in London as an observer and hope to do so again in the next 
couple of months. 

I have been trying to organise an elective rotation in the United 
States to see how things differ there, but I am continually running 
into obscure bureacracy and affiliation agreements that are entered 
into by various hospitals.

I have been reading the discussions of this list for a while and have 
noted that many of its contributors/readers are in the US, and was 
wondering if any of you might be able to help or provide suggestions as 
to whom I can write to. My time slot is between the 19th March and the 
27th of April 2007 and I am willing to travel anywhere. I would prefer 
a level 1 trauma centre with the possiblity of some EMT 'ride-along' 
experience. 

Thankyou for reading this message.
