The KCLWMS triage team are at the scene!
Day 2 of our conference yesterday was great fun. We had workshops on breathing, airways, circulation and disability & exposure. The afternoon involved mass casualty moulages, with an earthquake and a cave collapse scenario 💥

Since we have been away from Twitter for a while, we want to catch up you to speed! We are over halfway through this year’s training course, an internationally accredited training programme. We had amazing applications, and ultimately chose 26 KCL and intercalating students.

Last year’s course inevitably went exclusively online due to covid, so this year we were thrilled to be back in person running practical workshops as part of our training course.
