Simulation Lab

Our growing simulation lab allows for hands-on procedural learning as well as the ability to run mock scenarios in real-time with a simulated patient, capable of receiving and responding to any and all necessary therapies. Simulation lab is run by our Simulation fellowship trained faculty member. 

Basic and Advanced Courses

Throughout residency there are yearly courses intended to further the understanding and practice of emergency medicine. These include courses on the difficult airway, evidence-based medicine, advanced ultrasound, splinting, wilderness medicine, as well as others.
