3 - 4 OCTOBER 2019 | BRISBANE Introduction OBJECTIVES Ferno Australia and Team Australia EMS are all for promoting paramedic excellence. The objective of the FernoSim Challenge is to provide a fun and challenging educational experience for student paramedics to put into practice the academic and practical skills learnt at university. The FernoSim, unlike other EMS competitions, is not designed to test a team’s ability to recite assessment protocols or achieve “points” for doing the right things. We believe that teams signing up to compete feel confjdent that they excel in assessment and patient care, and that their team members can complete assigned tasks at a rapid, but effjcient pace. ABOUT FERNOSIM CHALLENGE NEW FORMAT We normally have more teams entering than we can cater for. So in 2019, we are introducing a two-stage FernoSim so more teams can be included. This means multiple teams from each university campus can now register without being wait-listed. • Stage 1: FernoSim Preliminaries - ALL TEAMS will participate in three separate Skill Challenges on 3rd October 2019. • Stage 2: FernoSim Final - The TOP 8 highest-scoring teams will proceed to the FernoSim scenario-based fjnal on 4th October. FERNOSIM PRELIMINARIES - 3RD OCTOBER 2019 Each team will participate in the Preliminary Challenge which comprises three Skill Challenges and will be based on a selection of any three topics from the list below. Teams will be scored on their performance and competency. The eight teams with the highest scores will proceed to the FernoSim scenario-based Final on Friday afternoon. Airway 1. Cardiac 2. Drug Calculations 3. Paediatric 4. Patient Assessment 5. Patient Packaging 6. FERNOSIM FINAL - 4TH OCTOBER 2019 The Student FernoSim Final is a high-fjdelity 15-minute, scenario-based event that tests each team’s ability to manage multiple patients with varying illnesses or injuries in front of a large audience of their peers. The Competition focuses directly on each team’s ability to: • Communicate and work as a team; • Gain control of a scene including conducting a thorough scene and hazard assessment; • Patient and crowd control; • Zero in on each patient’s illness or injury and manage each condition in a complete, compassionate and effjcient manner. FernoSim rules and regulations are designed to ensure standardisation in team and on-site operations plus administration of the FernoSim, operated by the FernoSim organising committee. To ensure consistency with the rules and regulations, only the designated FernoSim Coordinators are permitted to render an interpretation of the rules and regulation, offjcially address team concerns or make on-site operational/administrative decisions. Team Composition • An eligible team comprises three paramedic students enrolled in a recognised University. One team member must be designated as the team leader. • A fourth (alternate) paramedic student may be registered with a team and substituted in the event of illness or injury of one of the three primary team members or other reason acceptable to FernoSim offjcials. • Qualifjed paramedic graduates, physicians and physician assistants are not eligible for this competition. This is a student only event. BACK TO CONTENTS WWW.FERNO.COM.AU/EVENTS 4
