Edgewater Volunteer Fire Department’s Ambulance 29 attended the BWI EPLEX mass casualty drill, bringing units from across the state together on Saturday, November 1. A029 was assigned to the transport group. The drill topic was an airplane crash involving 150 patients. We transported a total of four critical patients. We practiced our EMS skills and had the opportunity to use triage tags, multi‑agency radio communications, and teamwork. All patients were transported within two hours of the start of the incident, which we were told is incredible. It was a great day of learning, practice, and fellowship.
