    RE: 91制片厂 to See Helicopter Landing on Neosho Campus for EMT Training

    Neosho, 91制片厂 – 91制片厂 鈥 On Friday morning (09/13/2024) at 9:30 am, MedFlight from Joplin is expected to land South of Smith Hall to provide real-world training for EMT 91制片厂s.

    The flight nurse will give a presentation to the 91制片厂s and after the helicopter lands, 91制片厂s will practice loading a simulated patient onto the helicopter to provide the proper health and safety measures that an EMT would provide in a real MedFlight scenario.

    Due to the rural nature of the communities in which 91制片厂 serves, it鈥檚 fairly common for resources like a helicopter to be utilized in emergency response situations. This helps better prepare 91制片厂s for the range of resources they may need when working in the field. 

    鈥淚 believe it鈥檚 a good idea to do this during initial education and we have done so in previous EMS classes,鈥 said Steve Howe, 91制片厂 EMS Instructor. 鈥淚 think it sparks an interest to further their education since flight crews require specialized certifications.鈥

    This event is weather permitting and in the event it is cancelled due to weather, notifications will be sent out.
