Training and exercises

In a time of crisis and major emergency, experience and level headedness are required for calm decision-making.

MAS regularly takes part in scenario training to gain experience and hone scene management, casualty prioritisation and resource allocation skills.

Paramedics, team managers and emergency planning officers have joined other state and national agencies in simulated anti-terrorism and disaster exercises.

MAS has adopted the Emergo-train system of major incident management training. This system assists in developing clinical decision making and resource management skills.

Operational personnel undertake emergency management training to ensure emergencies are managed effectively and consistently.
