Class 54’s pinning was today. This group is already digging into their paramedic work! We are thankful for each of them and appreciate them trusting us with their learning!

Class 55 continues their march through all things trauma. Environmental Emergencies was one of the topics this past week. Conner volunteered to demonstrate the idea of mammalian diving reflex.

Class 55 is deep into trauma care. Learning moves to a deeper level when simulation is used to replicate actual situations. This GSW patient was rapidly moved from the scene and transport immediately begun towards a trauma center. This high level intensity scenario pushes students to get everything necessary done, in the correct manner, prior to arriving at the hospital. Some things go really well, and some things get missed. And from that, students are able to learn on Bill the mannequin who will always survive to be the patient on the next call. This is one of the ways that we work to inoculate paramedic students from making critical mistakes on real people once they are out of class.

Class 56 is in the middle of the Cardiology module and working ECG rhythm interpretation. This is a big module and it is one of the foundations that they must solidify before moving forward into the hundreds of different medical and trauma conditions they will need to know how to treat. At least it is fun work! (Instructor opinion. Some restrictions apply if you are a student. See faculty for details.:))

Class 55 has wrapped up the medical block and is ready to dig into trauma. In the meantime we took time to run simulation, putting knowledge, skills, and abilities to work and sharpening clinical thinking.

Defibrillation qualification day is a day that our students approach with some apprehension. Proficiency testing always brings out the stress! Just like our law enforcement friends qualify with their fi****ms, paramedics must go through defibrillation qualifications. Paramedic students take turns defibrillating each other to gain a firsthand understanding of the physical effects of defibrillation and promote responsible and measured use of this life saving therapy in their field clinical practice. This exposure to 200 joules of energy—often called "riding the lightning"—demonstrates the reality of both R on T phenomenon and cardiac electrical system reset. This allows paramedic students to understand the defibrillation process, build confidence in defibrillator effectiveness, and foster empathy to avoid unnecessary defibrillations. Furthermore, experiencing defibrillation firsthand ensures that paramedics can accurately document medical care and prepares them to manage a return of spontaneous circulation patient who has been defibrillated.

Oh yeah . . . April Fools!
