EMT Course - Moulage Practical

A light hearted look into a practical training night for the EMT Basic course taught at the UMass Amherst campus. Teaching assistants from the student run UMass EMS present various trauma scenarios using intense make-up and acting to test students on their practical skills.

The EMT Basic course is run by Prehospital Emergency Care Educators (PECE) with the support of UMass EMS. For more information on the course these organizations, please visit http://www.umass.edu/ems.

via Wikipedia:
Moulage (French: casting/moulding) is the art of applying mock injuries for the purpose of training Emergency Response Teams and other medical and military personnel. Moulage may be as simple as applying pre-made rubber or latex "wounds" to a healthy "patient's" limbs, chest, head, etc., or as complex as using complicated makeup and theatre techniques to provide elements of realism (such as blood, vomitus, open fractures, etc.) to the training simulation. The practice dates to at least the Renaissance, when wax figures were used for this purpose.
