G-Star Students Participate in Palm Beach State College EMT
Training Exercise
5 G-Star students, members of the "X-Scream Team" spent the

for a group of this semesters EMT trainees. Students arrived
on campus with extremely life-like injuries designed by
makeup artist Emily Serpico to simulate real life scenarios
as part of the 2011 training program. EMT instructors and
students alike were so impressed with the realism and
training results that G-Star involvement in the program is
slated to continue with future EMT classes at the college.
