TITLE: Do no harm

My work “Do no harm” is a project documenting the training and applications of military medicine. These medical officers and soldiers are rigorously trained in realistic conditions over the course of multiple days. With medical maturity in the deployed environment changing, medics must be fully capable of dealing with aspects of critical care for much longer than conventionally thought. The images, created from 2015-2020, depict both training and real world application of military austere medicine.
