Testimonial
From Our Valued Partner
I want to thank you for (the simulation truck) experience. The staff was knowledgeable, kind, and easy to work with. The truck was easily adaptable to our scenarios, making the situations as realistic as possible to real patient care. We got great feedback from our nursing and paramedic crew members about the day. It was so nice to have the ability to run multiple scenarios at one time to keep the day moving in a streamlined manner. Thank you for sharing this resource with us. We can’t wait to partner again in the future.
