That\u2019s why<a href=\"https:\/\/medicine.wright.edu\/emergency-medicine\/residency\"> Wright State University emergency medicine residents<\/a> recently trained outside the hospital, combining vehicle extrication exercises and battlefield simulation to gain firsthand insight into prehospital care.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Earlier this spring, third-year residents used axes and hydraulic extrication tools on a wrecked minivan to simulate a high-stress rescue scenario at the Kettering Fire Department. The goal was to understand what firefighters, emergency responders and patients experience at the scene of an accident.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cIt was the most fun I\u2019ve had in a couple of months,\u201d said Zach Campbell, D.O. \u201cResidency is a grind and this is a great way to get some steam off.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Led by Kettering Fire Department Capt. Eric Hagemeyer, the exercise focused on the \u201cgolden hour,\u201d a narrow window of opportunity to save a patient\u2019s life. \u201cSometimes it takes a long time to extricate a patient,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Resident Juliet Corcillo, M.D., said the class provided the physicians with an important perspective. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot that we don\u2019t think about,\u201d she said. \u201cWe just see the patient when they get in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hagemeyer said the Kettering Fire Department\u2019s partnership with <a href=\"https:\/\/medicine.wright.edu\/\">Wright State\u2019s Boonshoft School of Medicine<\/a> benefits both institutions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cWe get to share our knowledge and our skills with them, and they get to share their knowledge and skills with us,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Several weeks earlier, residents also participated in a combat casualty care training exercise at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?client=safari&amp;rls=en&amp;q=wright+state+calamityville&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;oe=UTF-8\">Wright State University\u2019s Calamityville<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Both trainings support the EMS experience residents receive during the three-year program, said Brian Springer, M.D., professor and interim chair of emergency medicine at Wright State.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cIt allows them to become better emergency room physicians,\u201d Springer said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Boonshoft School of Medicine emergency medicine residents trained outside the hospital, combining vehicle extrication exercises and battlefield simulation to gain firsthand insight into prehospital care. <a href=\"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/2025\/06\/03\/crash-course-2\/\" class=\"morelink\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":51,"featured_media":159767,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[722,729,2144,2141,725,727,2146,2016,715,4920,720],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-159654","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-academics","category-around-campus","category-national-center-for-medical-readiness","category-emergency-medicine","category-home-news-sidebar","category-homepage-photos-and-video","category-residency","category-medicine","category-news","category-premier-health","category-video"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159654","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/51"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=159654"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159654\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":159667,"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159654\/revisions\/159667"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/159767"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=159654"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=159654"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=159654"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
