This past weekend, the WVU Medicine Critical Care and Trauma Institute, in collaboration with HealthNet Aeromedical Services, delivered four Airway Boot Camp sessions across the north region. Over the course of three days, healthcare professionals from EMS and hospital settings participated in immersive, hands‑on training designed to strengthen familiarity, confidence, and proficiency in both basic and advanced airway management.
The sessions focused on real‑world airway challenges, evidence‑based best practices, and critical care and trauma scenarios, all supported by state‑of‑the‑art simulation mannequins. More than 135 healthcare providers took part in this high‑impact educational experience occurring in St. Clairsville, Ohio; Wheeling, WV; Moundsville, WV; and Wintersville, Ohio.
A heartfelt thank‑you goes to the north region Critical Care and Trauma Institute leadership team, their committee, as well as to HealthNet, for their exceptional effort in organizing and delivering such a high‑quality program. Their commitment to advancing clinical excellence continues to enhance patient care throughout the region.
