This morning we had a mass casualty incident at the local elementary school. During a two-hour scenario, Aerie students triaged, moved and cared for 14 elementary school students (most of whom spoke no English) with carbon monoxide poisoning. The past few days we have been down to the local rivers quite often, caring for patients, building shelters to stay the night, and navigating our way to and from the scenes. We also completed our splinting section, with groups of students making improvised femur traction devises and having them evaluated.
