EMS Physician Procedure Simulation Training

Milwaukee, WI US
July 31, 2025

The Physicians taking part in this prehospital procedural training will gain specific knowledge centering around utilizing, developing, and enacting physician protocols for prehospital response. Additionally, they will gain significant knowledge advancements in how to operate, communicate, and work collaboratively with other prehospital rescuers. Second, performance of the high-risk procedures will be practice via a strategy of watching others and then being allowed to perform at least one low-occurrence-high-acuity procedure in a simulated and realistic prehospital environment. This will move the Physician forward in gaining procedural competency with dedicated expert feedback after procedural performance.
