You have an experienced paramedic to help you and all the kit you might need.

Speed Kills - Multiple victims in a car accident

Sudden Death Trauma Scenarios - Rapid decision making in critically injured patients. The basic principle is that in a moribund or dying patient, the Trauma Team Leader must make on the spot decisions. The correct decision may save the patient's life.
