Aspirus MedEvac Honored with Friends and Partners Award
The Nicolet College
Foundation awarded its 2023 Friends and Partners Award to Aspirus
MedEvac.
Aspirus MedEvac has
partnered with Nicolet College several times to help provide full-scale
immersive, hands-on learning simulations. “During simulations, we start from
ground zero with a structure fire taking place, patients getting extricated,
transferred to EMS, transferred to the nursing students, and transferred to the
helicopter,” says Nicolet College Associate Dean of Public Safety Jason
Goeldner. “Aspirus helps us provide this learning opportunity.”
“Our collaboration
with the Public Safety team and the Nursing students through simulations only
continued to grow people to come in and make our community bigger and be able
to support the needs of our public safety,” said Charlie Kotke, Aspirus MedEvac
regional manager.
Earlier this year,
Aspirus also donated an ambulance to the Nicolet College Foundation to help
bolster Nicolet College’s already strong experiential learning opportunities
for students.
