THE EMT Our Emergency Medical Tent (referred to as the E-M-T) is where all the action occurs.  We see an average of 100 patients per week, which does not seem like a whole lot, but about 25 per week are trauma cases.  The nurses and medics of the EMT are constantly training to prepare themselves to react quickly and efficiently to all kinds of critical injuries.
