![]() Elliott Bennett-Guerrero serves as a professor and vice chair of clinical research at Stony Brook University School of Medicine. A physician and anesthesiologist with two decades of experience in anesthesiology and critical care, Elliott Bennett-Guerrero previously carried out research at Duke University (where he received grant funding) and holds membership with a number of professional organizations, including the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM). The largest nonprofit association of its kind, the SCCM is made up of members who span more than 100 countries around the world. The organization enhances critical care practice through educational, research, and advocacy activities. The SCCM provides a wide range of programs that further the teaching efforts of medical institutions, ensuring students and residents receive the best possible education. The organization’s “Fundamentals” initiative includes the following: -Fundamental Critical Care Support (FCCS): This training for medical professionals who do not specialize in critical care equips individuals with the skills necessary to keep a critical patient alive for the first 24 hours until a critical care specialist arrives. -Pediatric Fundamental Critical Care Support (PFCCS): A similar training program to FCCS, PFCCS imparts the knowledge required to manage young patients (children and adolescents) following resuscitation. Students learn to prioritize essential treatment and identify life-threatening conditions. -Fundamental Disaster Management (FDM): This course enables medical personnel to deal with mass casualty situations stemming from major disasters. In addition to training on the types of events that can result in such a situation, trainees learn triage principles and the steps to assembling emergency ventilators.
