I see dead people...


Ok, not real dead people. Plastic mannequins called "Sim Man". Get it? Like he's a simulation of a man? Pretty clever!

Anyway, these are the guys (and girls, depending on what parts are jammed into the open space between the legs) which I will be practicing on for the next year. This quarter is still mostly a refresher course. I'll be responsible for dressing wounds, taking vital signs, and other activities of daily living with my new friend. It's kinda creepy to see bodies laying under sheets on donated hospital beds but it makes sense that I would learn skills on an unsuspecting plastic man before I'm unleashed on the general public.
