The R2K Medical Team was an overall success, especially compared to previous efforts at providing medical care, such as N30 and A16. In this brief report, I intend to outline the strengths and weaknesses of our Medical Team, as well as offer a few basic suggestions for the future. The medical team was perhaps *the* most coordinated team at R2K. The experiences of the last year provided us with a few key lessons that we were able to implement effectively. Each section below focuses on one of those lessons.

| - The R2K Medical Team was an overall success, especially compared to previous efforts at providing medical care, such as N30 and A16. In this brief report, I intend to outline the strengths and weaknesses of our Medical Team, as well as offer a few basic suggestions for the future. Before I say anything more, I want to be clear about my own role. I was asked by my organization (SLAM!) to provide care for our affinity group a few days prior to Aug. 1. This turned into a request that I help coordinate the larger medical effort in Philly, which eventually turned in to me being a “bottom-liner.” However, all said and done, I had a very specific and limited point of view as one of the roaming streetmedics during Aug. 1, and as a staff member at the clinic site. I would encourage folks to talk to the Philly Direct Action Medical Team (DAMiT) for a more broad-based review. The medical team was perhaps *the* most coordinated team at R2K. The experiences of the last year provided us with a few key lessons that we were able to implement effectively. Each section below focuses on one of those lessons.
