VGH at the Cutting Edge of Simulation!

On June 17th, VGH held the first multi-stage, multi-site, interdisciplinary trauma simulation, coordinated in no small part by our own Chief residents and simulation fellows, Dr. Nicolle Holm and Dr. Wesley Jang. From the paramedics, nurses, EPs, RTs, and trauma team in the emergency department to the OR and PACU teams, it was a huge success!
