EMS Gets Hands-On

Wells County EMS conducted reality-based training scenarios last week. Andy Stimpson was the patient, and EMS crews portrayed themselves.
The goal was learning the best way to deal with a semi-conscious or unconscious patient in an enclosed space, like a bathroom or laundry room.
Stimpson did a great job lying perfectly still as the crews rushed around him, performing their jobs with lightning speed and efficiency.
Bluffton Police Officers also took advantage of the training scenario to practice assisting EMS or First Responders; examining the various compartments on the truck, learning to handle the gurney and help however they may be needed during an emergency.
