University of Louisville School of Medicine held a live-action active shooter drill as part of senior medical student Madison Kommer’s capstone project.
Kommer is on a Global Medicine track and was matched at Ohio State University for his residency according to Jill Scoggins, interim HSC communications and marketing director.
He was responsible for the entire set up and communication between responders, administration and students.
Students who partook in the drill were part of the school’s Disaster Medicine Certificate Program which is an offered elective certificate.
The drill started after a remote explosive device was detonated twice at 9:13 a.
