Show Notes

JEMS Development Editor Mike Brown sits down with Jonathan Epstein, who leads the American Red Cross healthcare product management team, to unpack the Red Cross’s new Resuscitation Suite. Jonathan explains how the suite reimagines BLS, ALS and pediatric/neonatal resuscitation with EMS-first blended learning, a “practice as you perform” approach that embeds local protocols and integrated cognitive aids, including a digital app with step-by-step algorithms and clinical decision support. They discuss adaptive learning and computer-adaptive testing that shrink classroom time, an upcoming VR pathway that delivers team-based practice and certification, and realistic expectations for AI, dual sequential defibrillation and mechanical CPR. Ventilation, measurement and device design are highlighted as targets for education and engineering solutions.
