NAEMT Instructor and SMR Asst Director Craig Menefee finished up a PHTLS course for Balentine Ambulance Service this week.

Prehospital Trauma Life Support is an internationally recognized trauma education program developed by the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians in cooperation with the American College of Surgeons Committee on Trauma.

The course teaches prehospital providers a systematic, evidence-based approach to the assessment and management of trauma patients. Emphasis is placed on identifying and treating life-threatening injuries using critical thinking and rapid decision-making while minimizing delays to definitive care.

Key topics include:
* Trauma assessment and pt prioritization
* Airway and ventilation management
* Hemorrhage control and shock
* Head, spine, chest, abdominal, and extremity trauma
* Special populations (pediatric, geriatric, and pregnant trauma patients)
* Team communication and trauma system integration

PHTLS combines interactive lectures, hands-on skills stations, and realistic patient scenarios to improve provider confidence and optimize outcomes for injured patients.

When an emergency happens, the right training can make all the difference. SMR was honored to participate in Gibsland Bank & Trust’s annual employee training by providing the American Heart Association Heartsaver® course. GBT employees earned certification in CPR, AED, and First Aid, while also completing the American College of Surgeons Stop the Bleed® course.

Every newly trained responder strengthens our community and increases the chance that someone will be there when help is needed most. Congratulations to everyone who completed the training, and thank you to GBT for investing in the safety of your employees and the communities you serve.
