Yesterday, we conducted our annual MCI (Mass Casualty Incident) simulation to assess the skills of our junior members. Thanks to the participation of numerous volunteers, we were able to create a scenario where multiple patients were triaged and treated for their injuries. Training exercises like this are essential to our work, as they help us refine our skills. This ensures that when real-life situations arise, we can respond more effectively. Thank you again to everyone who contributed to making this possible!
