DISCLAIMER: Though members may provide insight into medical matters in the community the advise is not intended to officially diagnose, treat, or cure any potential medical issues. Further, the advise of the association will always be to seek local, certified medical consultation, such as from a general practice physician, for any medical issues.

Welcome all to our very own PERPHeads medical community. Many people in PERP have a background or future in medicine, but because of the advanced nature of the profession people may find it hard to chat about it.

I wanted to create this so medical/future-medical professionals in PERP can help gain some resources. The purpose of this threat and group is to provide:
  1. Medical intellectuals to chat with about professional topics,
  2. Career advice to both prospective members and current,
  3. People to play advanced medical roleplay with or even games to play games, such Arma 3 (ACE Medical Mod), which require more medical background for proper execution,
  4. Provide a source for the PERP Community to query on medical realism in PERP, other games, or in community matters.

Greetings my Medical Men and Women. I wanted to bring up a topic for discussion: NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs). Though these medicines are in heavy use both OTC and by script they have been shown more and more to increase the risk of CV events both in people w and w/o co-morbid factors like heart disease. I am going to link a few articles so everybody can read up on it and please post your opinions below on the future of NSAIDs in our first community discussion.

My school offers an Emergency Services program which I enrolled in. Throughout the 4 years, you learn about police, fire, and EMS. Right now, I'm working towards my EMR cert, and next year I will hopefully get my EMT cert. In my senior year, I will complete my Fire 1.
