Abstract: Emergency clinicians must be prepared for interprofessional care of multiple critically injured patients following mass-casualty incidents (MCI). To support and assess professional competency attainment, a simulation requiring Emergency Nurse Practitioner and Critical Care Paramedic students collaboration for MCI patient care delivery in the emergency department setting was developed. This simulation supported diverse learners in the comprehensive demonstration of essential knowledge, skills, and interprofessional communication. Opportunities for competency evaluation of each learner group were embedded within the activity. This paper details the development, implementation, and outcomes of this simulation over a two-year period, along with strategies for replication and curricular integration.
