PROGRAM OVERVIEW:
The Health Emergency Management Seminar – Trauma Management for Rural EMS And Community Hospitals (T-REACH) is designed to better prepare hospital and non-hospital response partners in planning, mitigating, responding to and recovering from natural and man-made disasters that impact the delivery of health care in a community or impact the environment of care for responders. The goal of the 2023 virtual seminar is to enhance the skills and knowledge of providers in the rural setting in the management of multi-injured patients and to understand the importance of working as a team of professionals in caring for patients with life-threatening traumatic injuries. Relevant information and stimulated discussions will focus on best practices in the management of trauma/disaster patients.
Based on presentations, participants will be able to:
- Discuss interventions appropriate to treat hemorrhage, burn and/or shock prior to arrival at a trauma center.
- Differentiate which patients require trauma center management and prepare rural communities for the appropriate care and transfer of the injured patient.
- Obtain a better understanding of the management of the care of critically injured patients in the setting of limited resources.
AGENDA/TOPICS/SPEAKERS:
