Description
The Creighton EMS Competition will consist of teams of three members plus a fourth alternate member who cannot participate but can help the team take photos or videos during the event, learn and be part of the scenario process, help the team practice and if needed, fill in for a member. Teams may be ALS (minimum of 2 Paramedics) or BLS (minimum of 2 EMTs) to participate. Each team is given the same EMS Scenario (“the call”) matched up against the clock (usually 15 minutes) and must triage assess, begin treatment and make transport decisions. Each event will have 5-8 patients, some critical, some moderate and minor, some “distracters” (non injured but either helpful or non helpful to each scenario). ALS teams will be judged in one category and BLS teams in another, with the ALS teams being responsible for both BLS and ALS care.
The scenario is based on a possible true-to-life event in which both human and non-human (manikins) patients are used. Each team will be evaluated by a panel consisting of a lead judge and a scoring judge. The scoring judge is not allowed to give feedback to the team.
