About this course

From the Oklahoma City bombing, 9/11, and the Boston marathon bombing to countless mass shootings, emergency medical personnel in the U.S. have been called upon to respond to various domestic and international terrorist attacks. While the location, timing, and exact nature of these events may be unpredictable, the response must involve a combination of first responder, public health, and hospital resources. This course is designed to provide first responders with the tools and critical approaches that they will need to identify and respond to a major terrorist or mass casualty event.

I really loved this information. I was hospitalized last year for almost a month and I noticed multiple medical errors (not being hooked up to my IV multiple times, given wrong medication which caused my sodium to be very low, etc.) which lengthened my stay. I can now define those exact errors and better understand what happened to me. I hate that these medical errors are so common and I appreciate how well laid out your breakdown and categorization of them was.
