WHAT ARE MEDICAL PATIENT SCENARIOS? They are a key element in full-scale emergency response training and exercises — they are also the hardest part about writing such exercises. Emergency Management Products LLC (a division of EPTEC Inc.) maintains a database of credible, exercise-tested medical patient scenarios that will make your exercises more effective.
Our Disaster Exercise Patient Scenarios are:
Available in a sortable selection based on triage level, age, or type of scenario — this saves your organization both time AND money.
Medically credible, showing patient changes over time — the quality of our patient scenarios are consistent and assured.
In addition to our patient scenarios being medically accurate, they are also field-tested for a variety of exercises. For example, our scenarios:
Work from the field through to the hospital.
Present information using standard EMS mnemonics.
Provide advanced medical information for the hospital.
Can be used to create a medical examiner’s/coroner’s scenario.
Can be provided in START/JumpSTART format.
