Well... hospitals offer a controlled arena with mega-experience watching, mentoring and giving you the tricks of the trade. Not to mention, you should be able to get as many intubations in hospital in a good clinical setting as one would need to feel comfortable enough in the field. Field medics are in great need of this training, and the field is not adequately providing it. The numbers show it, we see it and it is going to hurt us. Unless you are on a small grouped critical care service, a new medic probably won't get the experience they initially needs.
Tubing the plastic head just does not cut it for experience.
But I do agree that the field is the best area for it, but we need the future medics to graduate having live intubations done and confident/proficient in it.
