Students from the Criminal Justice, Medical Assistant, Nursing and EMS programs at Barton Community College participated in a day-long string of intense, realistic scenarios designed to test their knowledge and ability to respond in-the-moment Saturday during the college’s annual Field Ops Day.Volunteer “patients” from all over the community allowed themselves to be battered and bloodied via sometimes gory makeup to simulate realistic traumatic injuries ranging from scuffs, burns and bruises to broken bones and deep lacerations, which took a gallon of fake blood, a dozen hand-made lacerations and 48 sutures. Wrecked cars were also towed onto campus and staged for a mock major car accident.Scenarios included simple doctor’s office visits, heart attacks, dog bites, a rollover accident and much more. Many of the almost 70 scenarios were set up so a patient is transported from the scene to a mock emergency room staffed by nursing and medical assistant students.
