NAH's Simulation Promotes Teamwork Between Emergency, Medical Personnel
Apr 24, 2023
A three-hour emergency simulation gave students an opportunity to reflect on their role during emergencies and experience life-saving situations.
Recently, the Nursing and Allied Health program sponsored a collaboration simulation with Emergency Medical Services, nursing and Certified Nursing Assistant students participating. The ER simulation emphasized the importance of teamwork among emergency and medical personnel and was an opportunity for students to demonstrate their skills in the nursing process.
The exercise is the first of many modern training exercises designed to level-up һФһÂëÖгÖ’s students while offering a risk-free experience.
The ER simulation included real-life worst-case scenarios. Numerous volunteers acting as patients visited the ER simulation exhibiting symptoms such as asthma, diabetic shock, and some were in need of critical care including limb loss. Some volunteering patients were tasked to test the interpersonal and communication skills of the students, attempting to provoke a negative response — which none of the students exhibited.
The three-hour exercise gave students an opportunity to reflect on their role during emergencies and experience life-saving situations. Instructors and һФһÂëÖÐ³Ö staff gathered to observe, while the simulation unfolded one thing is certain — your community is in safe hands.
