Thanks to the efforts of PCRM and its members, three more institutions recently joined the overwhelming majority of North American facilities using only nonanimal methods for trauma training. The University of Massachusetts and two Canadian institutions, Hamilton Health Sciences at McMaster University and Saint John Hospital in New Brunswick, now teach lifesaving trauma procedures with high-tech simulators instead of animals.  

Urge the few remaining institutions using animals for trauma training to switch to modern nonanimal methods. Take action at PCRM.org/Research.
