Planning

When help is days away, planning is everything

On an expedition, evacuation might mean a stretcher carry, a boat, a flight and a border crossing. A dental abscess or bad ankle can stop a whole venture.

We work with you from the start: assessing the medical risk, screening participants, building kit and drug packs, and writing evacuation plans that work in that country.

Our heritage

Born from mountain medicine

Apex was founded by people who head to the jungle, snowy peaks, the Arctic and deserts. Our rescue and expedition medics are experienced mountain people, embedded in Mountain Rescue in the UK.

You get a clinician who can look after themselves and others in extreme environments.
