The quiet part no one talks about is how we had to do this on the hospitals during covid. Not enough beds, not enough ventilators. Seared in my mind

Unfortunately in mass casualty situations that's how it is.

in my EMT academy we had a triage sim day n one of the instructors hopped in for fun. I black tagged him (rightly) but he made the most believable cries for help... like full on begging and wailing

Triage training was the worst part of EMT classes, the made up scenarios were awful. I'm glad I never had to actually do it irl

Triage in training is nothing compared to real life 💔 no matter how trained you are it’s still traumatic for the medic choosing who lives and dies 💔

Same training as soldiers for mass casualty events. You have to have right mindset for sure.

I learned about this in college. I was a student actor for a mock mass casualty event and got the black tag. It was heartbreaking.

Leigh Deppe :
triage during an MCI is the absolute most traumatic thing I experienced in training and it's why I ultimately couldn't do it even though I was good at it.

Man I work hospital security and I was talking to a paramedic about this the other day and he had to watch his partner black tag a little kid

Having gone to EMT school and then working in a hospital… it was a very odd transition. In an MCI, the person without a pulse is looked over.

do paramedics call the patients "individuals" as like a way to remove the emotion from the scenario? genuine question, I mean no disrespect.
