Can you believe that one month ago we were at Pacific Jamboree? ๐Ÿฅน What a treat it was to train with, treat, and meet both medvents and scouts from all over for this special west coast camp that happens every 4 years! Did you know we had approx 700 volunteers and over 2500 participants? Our medvents got lots of experience in event and hospital medicine this time around!

Scouts Canada, as a volunteer organization, can sometimes be reliant on self fundraising or external sponsorships and donations to continue educating our youth about the outdoors, and for our MedVents case, also the healthcare world. As we spend this upcoming week packing for Pacific Jamboree 2024, we wanted to take the time to thank Bass Pro Shops and Cabela's Canada outdoor fund for generously donating the 89th Richmond MedVents a $1000 gift card!

Without donations like these, we wouldn't be able to keep up with the maintenance of our outdoor gear or have the opportunity to replace items that have been worn down, or have something new for our group for outdoor adventures. We want to assure you that this investment into outdoor youth programs will not go to waste, and that we are endlessly thankful.

Two of our MedVents made their way out to Bass Pro in Tsawwassen last weekend to graciously accept this offer, and of course, we couldn't just get away without having a photoshoot of all the cool things they had in store ๐Ÿ˜Š

Throwing it back to our April monthly meeting, where two incredible guest speakers from the SAR Team South Fraser Search and Rescue Mike and Andrew came to talk to us about their work in our community and how we can keep ourselves safe when exploring the outdoors.

โ€œEach year, search and rescue groups in BC respond to over 1,500 incidents involving over 1,700 lost or injured persons. Our 3,400 unpaid professional volunteers (fully trained members, members-in-training and resource members), located throughout BC communities, are available day or night.โ€ via: bcsara.com (http://bcsara.com/)

Thank you to the SFSAR team along with Andrew and Mike for giving us an informative presentation about the simple things we can do to keep ourselves safe, such as wearing the proper footwear or packing an extra light (or two as Mike would suggest). The MedVents will carry this knowledge onto their next outdoor adventures!

We truly appreciate the hard work and endless dedication the SAR volunteers put in to keep our community safe.

Monthly Meetings? No Problem! Our MedVents are looking forward to what March's meeting will bring as February brought RoVent Recaps, Certification upgrades and โš ๏ธSENSITIVE CONTENT WARNING: Pig lungs!!โš ๏ธ scroll to see the lung lab fun and check the comments to see what inflation of an intubated lung looks like!

In a typical ventilation fashion with a bag valve mask, responders are instructed to squeeze 1/3 of the volume of the bag, or until they see chest rise on their patient. Here, you can see the full volume of the bag being squeezed to really highlight the pig lung and watch the obvious movement and anatomy a little bit better ๐Ÿค“
