We've had 100% of our resources deployed with more resource orders expected to continue for the foreseeable future. Wildfire prevention and management is a multi-agency effort, and [Best Practice Medicine coordinates across federal and state agencies to help state, local, tribal, and territorial partners respond to wildfires.](https://bestpracticemedicine.com/wildland-fire) Here’s a brief rundown of everything we have accomplished in support of the county’s wildfire fighting efforts since the fire season began.

However, the realism of this patient, and therefore the reality of the scene, is impaired by the fact that our patients are not in-fact limbless plastic torsos. By integrating state of the art simulator mannequin technology, and employing an elite team of certified simulation specialists, we break this barrier, and we train providers with a higher caliber of realism.
