 We did an exercise using multiple units and our allied forces to run through a scenario with a patient injury. The purpose here, we are drilling with the host nation Tunisia and they are our next echelon of care in terms of a local hospital because we are far out in the field and the injuries can be somewhat catastrophic. Training like this is really important because it gives us all an opportunity to not only make sure we know our own jobs when it comes to patient injuries working through patient issues but it also gives the whole team and the whole transport through of where the patient is getting handled to where they are going to go, an opportunity to know how the flow is going to work and where patients are going to be going, who is going to be treating them and every step along the way as to what needs to be done to get that patient the best care possible and the safest manner possible. So we had our first line medics and they would give us a missed report. We tested comms from our jock through our forward surgical detachment unit and from point of injury. We brought them into our resuscitation bay and there we performed basically advanced trauma life support and a resuscitation technique. This training with our allied forces is great because it gives us an opportunity to see their capabilities and them to see ours and then combine those capabilities to find the better way of doing certain CASEVAC or patient care situations as well. For today's exercise we did go through the full scenario of if the patient was to be resuscitated to the point where we were actually able to bring them to a surgical area to stop internal hemorrhaging. We also worked hand in hand with the Tunisian CASEVAC to make sure we had a helicopter in place. We were able to get our patient on that helicopter and got them to a higher level of care after we were able to stop the internal hemorrhaging, pack that patient, ready to go, give them the best opportunity for survival.
