You're a healthcare professional and you've just answered the call to help a sick airline passenger while cruising at 30,000 feet. No resources; no support staff; no emergency landing for another 1/2 hour. No problem! You know what to do because you listen to boonDOCS Medicine... More specifically, tune in to hear how the Physician-to-the-President of the U.S.A. ensures that Air Force One is up to speed regarding its on-board medical capabilities. Learn how the President gets vaccinated for all those trips abroad. Hear how a Constitutional Amendment allows for a temporary shift in power during medical procedures requiring sedation of the President. Learn what it takes to become a member of the White House Medical Unit!
