Neonatal Resuscitation Simulation - NYS Collaborative
Uncomplicated delivery in the field is fairly straightforward. Unfortunately, things do not always go as planned. Thankfully, resuscitating a neonate in distress is a rare event but something that requires acute clinical acumen. This video depicts a newborn that is not responding to initial interventions. Review the neonatal resuscitation protocol along with this video. The next episode will depict an informal debrief of both this scenario as well as the OB field delivery scenario covered in the previous episode.

OB Field Delivery Simulation - NYS Collaborative
Delivery of a neonate in the field environment poses a number of challenges. This video depicts a scenario that involves EMS field delivery. The delivery is fairly quick and uncomplicated but the neonate is in distress. The video covers the uncomplicated delivery process. Episode 47 will review complications of delivery and how they are managed by EMS in the context of the current protocols. The resuscitation of the neonate will be covered in the next episode.

Ep #36 Advanced GEMS - @NAEMT_ Beta Course #AGEMS
NAEMT’s groundbreaking Geriatric Education for Emergency Medical Services (GEMS) Advanced course builds on the GEMS core course, delving into more complex, realistic scenarios and the unique technology EMS practitioners are likely to encounter when assessing, treating, and transporting older adults.
-Highly interactive, immersive educational format focuses on integrating critical thinking into real world application.
-Topics covered include caring for and transporting patients on home ventilators, LVADs (left ventricular assist devices), tracheostomies, PICC lines/invasive lines and feeding tubes.
-Prepares EMS practitioners for the array of medical, mobility, psychosocial and communications issues found in older patients.
-Students are guided through a series of scenarios involving increasingly complex symptoms and situations.

Ep #35 All Hazards Disaster Response – @NAEMT_ Beta Course #AHDR
All Disasters are Local. First responders, regardless of the type of incident, need to be prepared to respond to mass casualty events and disasters of varying types with changing conditions and hazards. While the FEMA Incident Command Courses offer a primer on organizational structure of a response as well as insight into general operations at events, there is no course specifically aimed at prehospital providers which simultaneously codifies the medical knowledge required to care for critically ill and injured patients at a multitude of events. More so, this course targets boots on the ground providers from EMTs, Paramedics as well as EMS Response & Rescue physicians and provides the necessary skills, knowledge and insight to integrate seamlessly within the overarching ICS framework from the bottom up. This course focuses on the initial response to a wide range of possible events and is designed to scale perfectly to your operational area with topics including Structural Fires, Radiologic Events, Natural Disasters and critical Infrastructure Failure, Transportation events, Infectious Disease Outbreaks and of course Active Shooter Events. There are a bevy of well honed exercised, drills and tabletops to keep the pace of the 8hr day brisk and engaging.
It was a sincere pleasure to lead a distinguished group of authors in developing this new course which we Beta’d for the very first time in New Orleans at #EMSWorldExpo16. The official debut will be at @EMSTODAY conference in Salt Lake City Utah as a preconference on February 22nd 2017. Hope to see you all there!

We hope to add the #AHDR course to the suite of Prehospital Trauma courses including PHTLS, TCCC & TECC and encourage all instructors for this course to keep an eye out for the online training module which will allow you to become an instructor for AHDR!
