Lee County Public Safety recently participated in a training session called 'Moulage Mania' at Florida SouthWestern State College, led by instructor Chris Clemens. The class focused on the basics of Special FX makeup, which is essential for first responders.

During the training, the EMS team learned to create realistic trauma scenarios, including burns, hematomas, gunshot wounds, and shark bites. This knowledge will enhance the team's ability to better prepare their staff for real-life emergencies.

The event was part of the upcoming spooky season and featured creative techniques for achieving lifelike effects.
