Competitions & Game Shows at AMTC

[Heather McLellan]

Hi folks,

There is actually going to be a game show competition each day during this
year's AMTC... Monday will be TraumaRama, Tuesday will be X-ray Wars and
Wednesday will be Air Medical Transport Jeopardy.  Some of these
competitions are medically oriented and others have questions for all team
members.  There will also be the live-action ALS competition using the Human
Patient Simulators taking place in the exhibit hall.

Check out your conference syllabus for the details on these and other
excellent educational opportunities in Tampa this year!

Absolutely.  Can't have the Aero without the flying part.  Could have
questions in categories like flt physiology, safety, survival, etc.  Teams
could be given a scenario and require an evaluation and plan in a time
limit, be given problems/obstacles and outcomes based on choices.  A panel
of judges and accepted practices would determine winner.  Transport
Simulation Competition.

It would be nice to include pilots to your team...we're the guys who fly our
medical teams around.  You may have seen us in the helicopter...we're the
person in the front at the controls.
