TNMU Continues Implementation of the Final Stage of Instructors Training

100 emergency medical service specialists will participate in final training to become certified instructors. After successful completion of these trainings, they will be able to train their colleagues. This applies to those representatives of emergency medical care centres who, at the end of April 2023, completed training in the course “Instructor in providing pre-hospital care” (more details here: https://dev.tdmu.edu.ua/en/2023/05/02/100-specialists-in-emergency-medical-care-completed-training-in-pre-hospital-care-instructor-course/). In general, representatives of all regions of Ukraine had a chance to master their practical skills.

The course “Pre-hospital care instructor” is one of the basic stages of a large-scale educational project on the transformation of the emergency medical care system. The project was first implemented in February 2019 in cooperation between the International Red Cross and I. Horbachevsky Ternopil National Medical University.
