Mobile medical training platform and method of use
First Claim
1. A mobile medical simulation platform for training medical emergency personnel, the platform comprising:
- a mobile base movable between remote geographical locations, the mobile base including a main enclosure having a forward end and a rearward end and defining an interior space;
medical equipment in the interior space of the main enclosure and usable in medical simulation training for treating a human patient; and
simulation apparatus configured to provide simulation of medical events and conditions of a human patient;
wherein the interior space of the main enclosure of the mobile base includes at least two medial simulation areas separated from each other within the interior and movable together as a unit from location to location, the medical simulation areas including a combination of;
a simulation of an interior of a medical practice space of a mobile type contained in a vehicle; and
a simulation of an interior of a medical practice space of an immobile type contained in a building;
wherein the medical simulation area having a said medical practice space of a mobile type comprises an ambulance simulation area; and
wherein the medical simulation area having a said medical practice space of an immobile type comprises an emergency room simulation area;
wherein the medical simulation area are contained in the main enclosure to permit simultaneous emergency simulation training exercises of ambulance personnel and emergency room personnel to occur in the simulation areas of the main enclosure.

Abstract
A mobile medical simulation platform for training medical emergency personnel comprises a mobile base movable between remote geographical locations. The mobile base may include a main enclosure having a forward end and a rearward end and defining an interior space. The base may also include medical equipment in the interior space of the main enclosure and usable in medical simulation training for treating a human patient, and simulation apparatus configured to provide simulation of medical events and conditions of a human patient. The interior space is separated into an ambulance simulation area and an emergency room simulation area contained in the main enclosure to permit simultaneous simulation training exercises to occur in each of the simulation areas. A method of utilizing the platform may include conducting training at a first location, moving the platform to a second location, and conducting training at the second location.

18. A method of training medical personnel using a portable medical simulation platform, comprising:
-
providing a portable medical simulation platform comprising a mobile base movable between remote geographical locations, the mobile base including a main enclosure defining an interior space separated into an ambulance simulation area and an emergency room simulation area, the platform further including medical equipment in the interior space usable in medical simulation training and simulation apparatus configured to provide simulation of medical events and conditions of a human patient; moving the platform to a first location to conduct medical training of a first group of medical personnel; conducting training in the simulation areas of the platform in the first location with the first group of personnel; moving the platform from the first location of training to a second location to conduct medical training with a second group of personnel; and conducting training in the simulation areas of the platform in the second location with the second group of personnel; wherein the steps of conducting training include transferring a patient simulator from the ambulance simulation area to the emergency room simulation area by the medical personnel without leaving the interior of the main enclosure. - View Dependent Claims (19)
