The skill stations facilitate integration of psychomotor abilities in a setting that simulates trauma patient situations. Topic include biomechanics and mechanism of injury, initial assessment, shock, thoracic, abdominal, spinal cord, burn, geriatric and pediatric trauma, and psychosocial aspects of trauma. The skills stations cover the trauma nursing process, airway and ventilation interventions, spinal immobilization, traction application and chest trauma.
