📝 Abstract
[Summary generated by AI] In this video, the author presents an interprofessional (IP) simulation centered on a high-acuity domestic violence incident staged at a Homeland Security Education Center. The scenario integrates a complex cascade—intimate partner assault with firearm injury, fire setting, intoxication, and pediatric bystanders—requiring coordinated response from police, EMS, and multiple health programs (nursing, respiratory care, surgical technology, diagnostic imaging, and nuclear medicine). Resources included live standardized patients, high-fidelity mannequins enhanced with theater-department makeup, authentic field and hospital equipment, and a media team that documented and produced an edited project. Methods emphasized realism, role delineation, and time-critical transitions from scene stabilization to transport and hospital care, with a deliberate focus on therapeutic communication and inter-equipment interoperability. The person interviewed highlights outcomes such as improved teamwork, time management, accurate clinical communication, critical thinking under stress, and mutual respect across disciplines. Students reported greater confidence and perceived readiness for clinical practice and paramedic training. The deliverables comprised the edited media record of the exercise and actionable insights for curricular refinement, with plans to scale the IP training in subsequent iterations while leveraging mistakes as structured learning opportunities.
