Implementing Stop the Bleed at Skidmore College
Skidmore College Emergency Medical Services (SCEMS) implemented a Stop to Bleed campaign at Skidmore College. SCEMS organized 20 free bleeding control trainings to train over 60 community members and incorporated $5,000 into the Skidmore Campus Safety 2018 budget for bleeding control equipment.
Optimizing Collegiate EMS Resources During Major Events
Brown EMS (BEMS) provides primary medical coverage at Spring Weekend (SWE), an annual outdoor concert drawing 6,000 attendees per day. By increasing its resources to include ground details and an additional ALS ambulance, BEMS aims to increase venue capacity, optimize response, and limit mutual-aid requirements.
