SIM-MT

SIM-MT is in the news again—this time for a story that highlights both innovation and compassion in Montana’s emergency response system. NBC Montana recently covered how the state Department of Public Health and Human Services has distributed 472 “Carter Kits” to every licensed EMS agency, equipping responders with sensory tools like noise-canceling earmuffs, weighted blankets, cue cards, and fidget toys to better support children with autism and other sensory processing needs during crisis calls.

MISSOULA — Nursing students often spend hundreds of hours studying the ins and outs of medical in the classroom.

We’re proud to share that SIM-MT recently partnered with the Hinsdale Volunteer Ambulance Service and the Hinsdale Volunteer Fire Department for a high-fidelity farm-injury simulation in Hinsdale (Oct. 9). The training placed first-responders in realistic, high-pressure scenarios — including rapid assessment, bleeding control, airway management, and team communication — using life-like manikins.

We’re in the news again! SIM-MT wrapped our final Mental Health Simulation of the year at Big Horn Hospital in Hardin—helping local teams sharpen de-escalation, role clarity, and coordinated handoffs for patients in crisis. It’s all about building muscle memory now so care is safer when it counts.

We’re in the news: SIM-MT training featured by KRTV

KRTV covered our mobile simulation training at Logan Health – Shelby, showing how rural teams sharpen skills with life-like manikins (the article uses “mannequins”). The story captures why we take high-fidelity training on the road: because geography shouldn’t decide outcomes.

Simulation in Motion Montana (SIM-MT) was featured in the Glasgow Courier for bringing hands-on simulation training to Frances Mahon Deaconess Hospital. This training helped strengthen emergency care for healthcare teams across Valley County.

Earlier this month, our team at Simulation in Motion Montana (SIM-MT) was proud to participate in the HEADS UP Behavioral Health Camp at Carroll College—a powerful program designed to equip Montana teens with the tools to recognize and respond to mental health emergencies. KTVH News captured the heart of this event, highlighting how hands-on simulation, including our manikin Ares, helped students learn how to administer Narcan, recognize signs of overdose, and support peers through mental health crises. We’re honored to be part of this critical work—and even more excited to see it making headlines.
