Here are a couple of examples of why having some specific understanding of remote situations and response is important to you in as a contributing citizen.
[put in intro video]
Here are some context for which you might find this course useful in the future and how the Scouting program is preparing citizens to serve.
In this next video, imagine you are the link to the doctor on the other end-- in this course you'll be learning what to share to help others make good decisions, as you manage the situation and victim.
In this video listen and note the decisions about managing the situation are made at the command center and on scene. Think back to your previous experiences with scouting and emergencies and what good planning, training, and leadership can help with during a remote emergency.
This is lesson 1 of 17 which you'll work through before our lab/practical time in a few weeks. I've put these together and tried to make them interactive. As much as you think you know about this already, there should be some good tidbits for you to improve.
Your first assignment, record a video of a primary assessment of a person and submit:
Introduce the scenario (ex. the person fell out of tree)
Video must show:
introduce self to victim, level of training, and what you are about to do, ask for consent
Voice you're putting on gloves or put on gloves
Head to toe to arms to back systematic touching and sweeping for blood, in 30-45 seconds
Video must be perfect or doesn't count (ex., if you forget to check a leg).
Must be submitted by March 18 midnight. Upload to Youtube or another location and send link to jeffrey.pellegrino@gmail.com.
