Disaster Day
Disaster Day
Teams of interprofessional students will practice the basics of mass casualty triage and apply assessment, reasoning, and decision-making skills during an emergency to facilitate and optimize collaboration through teamwork, communication, values/ethics, and understanding of roles/responsibilities. During the event, interprofessional student teams will come together to diagnose, treat, and care for volunteer patients and populations affected by a natural disaster. Disaster Day will follow the disaster preparedness event of E.P.I.C., also held in the spring, with the opportunity for hands-on application in emergence responsiveness.
