W.Va. CERF-P at WVU

Warning

This video contains footage of medical professionals performing procedures on a tissue donor.

Dr. Daniel Grabo, director of trauma education at West Virginia University School of Medicine, instructs members of the CBRNE Enhanced Response Force Package (CERF-P) a detachment of the 130th Medical Group during the capstone of the Trama Skills Sustainment Course in performing life-saving hands-on skills on a profused cadaver on August 13, 2021, at The Critical Care and Trauma Institute in Morgantown, West Virginia. The trauma training was a year-long collaboration with WVU and the CERF-P to overcome a shortfall in training required by medical airmen every three years. Thanks to the continued partnership with WVU, four classes containing 31 personnel from CERF-P have completed trauma training. This serves as an asset to the mission because WVU not only maintains relevant training for personnel but facilitates training at a lower cost than other training locations.
