As Health Care providers at all levels work together, we must be challenged together in safe spaces to allow for skills development and management techniques of critically injured patients.
Policies & Procedures are the foundation of our Emergency Action Plans. Its important that we practice what we preach, so we challenge teams to work through what they think they will do to ensure it matches what they say they will do in an actual emergency!
