You receive an emergency call. A female has collapsed in the street. You arrive outside the nightclub to find a young female slumped against a wall. There is no other bystander in the area and the caller has left the scene. As you approach the patient you notice she is singing in a slurred fashion. What should you do?

Paramedic students studying at the Faculty of Health and Social Care Sciences, a partnership between St George’s, University of London and Kingston University, can find the answer using Second Life, an internet-based virtual world.
