Our afternoon sessions are flying by! Jacob Fisher just delivered a powerful presentation, "1 October," on the Las Vegas shooting response -- all we can say is, wow, what an intense session!!

Missy Carter presented “Demystifying the Pediatric Airway” as our third session of the morning. We appreciated how relevant and practical it was for both BLS and ALS providers!
