Back to School Icebreakers | Fun Friday Survival Game Bundle | Health Science

 Check out the PREVIEW!

Get your students thinking, treating, and surviving with this immersive set of six medical survival challenges designed for health science and emergency response classrooms. In each scenario, students are placed in a real-world disaster or crisis where medical help is delayed — and they must think like healthcare professionals using only the everyday items around them.

Each scenario asks students to work in teams, analyze the setting, and choose three practical items to use in a healthcare emergency. They justify their choices, calculate their survival scores, and reflect on how to improve their critical thinking, emergency care reasoning, and teamwork.

Includes All 6 Scenarios:

1. First Aid Flight 101: Emergency in the Jungle – Plane crash in the rainforest.
2. The Great Gym Flood Survival Test – School gym floods with students trapped inside.
3. Rescue Ridge: Think, Treat, Survive – Stranded hiking group in the mountains.
4. Aftershock Aid: Think, Treat, Survive – Earthquake hits a crowded shelter.
5. Eye of the Aftermath: Think, Treat, Survive – Hurricane recovery shelter, no power or medical support.
6. Chill Zone Triage: Treat to Survive – Urban winter power outage leaves a shelter in crisis.
