The First Responder Simulation Training (FIRST) program effectively trains cognitive skills for first responders. Both instructors and participants found the simulation-based training valuable for enhancing situation assessment and decision-making abilities.

Area of Science:

  • Emergency Medicine
  • Educational Technology
  • Cognitive Psychology

Background:

  • Simulation-based training is crucial for first responders, extending beyond taskwork to include cognitive skills like decision-making.
  • There is a growing demand for training in complex and degraded situations to enhance cognitive abilities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the training utility and usability of the First Responder Simulation Training (FIRST) program.
  • To assess the effectiveness of FIRST in training cognitive skills for military and civilian first responders.

Main Methods:

  • The FIRST program includes five detailed scenarios, evaluation instruments, debriefing guidelines, a multimedia tutorial, and a scenario administration guide.
  • An evaluation was conducted with instructors and participants to gather feedback on the program's utility and usability.

Main Results:

  • The FIRST program was positively received by both instructors and participants.
  • Instructors found the program's materials valuable for administering simulation-based training and recognized the importance of cognitive skill development.
  • Participants reported that the realistic and challenging scenarios would be a valuable addition to medic curricula.

Conclusions:

  • The FIRST program demonstrates significant training utility and usability for enhancing cognitive skills in first responders.
  • Simulation-based training, as exemplified by the FIRST program, is a valuable supplement to traditional medical education and training for emergency personnel.
