Since 2018, Indiana has experienced an increase in ambulance calls but a decrease in EMS workers[1]. This has created longer wait times for ambulance services, which could negatively impact outcomes, especially during emergencies like a stroke or traumatic injury. Thus, EMS in the state often relies on volunteers to fill open positions, despite a lack of funding to train these workers. However, the Indiana Mobile Simulation Laboratory is helping address training gaps by bringing hands-on, simulation-based training to first responders across the state, en ..read more

Currently, 16% of the United States population is 65 and older, and is expected to increase to 21% by 2040[1]. This population will live with chronic conditions that will require specialized geriatric healthcare. Despite this, the number of healthcare providers qualified to care for elderly patients in the U.S. continues to shrink even as the need increases. However, academic programs and hospitals can use simulation-based training to help combat the shortfall of geriatric care providers by training and upskilling more healthcare professionals before it is too late.
