Escape Rooms are fun team building exercises based on a theme and puzzle/problem solving that leads to an exit from the room. Bob Page has developed a highly EMS related scenario with high fidelity simulation and added a theme designed to challenge EMS providers critical thinking, situational awareness and patient assessment and management techniques. The team must find clues, and solve all of the puzzles that will save the patient's life and allow the successful escape from the room. By popular demand Bob has developed this session designed for Educators, Bob will break down what is needed for such an event sharing valuable experience along the way on what works and what doesn't. From an idea to the finished product, this session will give you what you need to do your own. the only thing you need to add is your own imagination!
