Ha Tinh prepares human resources for foreign emergency hospital project

(Baohatinh.vn) - Under the direction of the Department of Health, Ha Tinh General Hospital has trained 50 doctors and nurses to be ready to implement the out-of-hospital emergency project.

Ha Tinh is one of the localities selected by the Ministry of Health to pilot the project of emergency care outside the hospital in the period of 2025 - 2027. To meet the requirements, based on the direction of the Department of Health, the Provincial General Hospital, as a leading medical facility, has taken steps in training human resources, ready to implement the project.

The American Heart Association (AHA) in collaboration with Ha Tinh General Hospital organized a training program on "Basic Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation" for doctors and nurses working at the hospital.

Accordingly, in May 2025, implementing the national out-of-hospital emergency project for the period 2025 - 2030, the project's lecturers from the American Heart Association (AHA) coordinated with Ha Tinh General Hospital to organize a training program on "Basic Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation" for doctors and nurses working at the hospital.

During the 2 days, experts from the American Heart Association directly instructed doctors and nurses of the Provincial General Hospital on some basic techniques such as: High-quality CPR for adults, children and infants; effective use of defibrillators/automated electric shock devices (AED); effective respiratory support with a respirator mask; emergency treatment for cases of foreign body aspiration in the airway for adults and children; and coordinated CPR in groups.

Specialists equip physicians with skills in outpatient emergency care.

By June 2025, the American Heart Association continued to coordinate with Ha Tinh General Hospital to organize a community first aid training course with the goal of raising awareness and equipping the community with basic first aid skills. During the course, students were trained in first aid skills, initial, quick and correct treatment measures in health emergencies such as: accidents, suffocation, cardiac arrest, heavy bleeding, broken bones... before the victim was taken to a medical facility. The first aid training course not only provides professional knowledge but also enhances responsibility and awareness of protecting life. This is also an important asset for those who work in environments prone to accidents or who regularly come into contact with the community.

Doctor Tran Tien - Deputy Head of the Department of Emergency and Poison Control, member of the emergency team outside the hospital said: "Through training courses, the members of the team not only fully grasp the skills to handle situations and are granted certificates, but more importantly, they also take on the role of communicating and guiding lower-level medical facilities to create a widespread emergency network outside the hospital, thereby improving the effectiveness of emergency work for people."

Provincial General Hospital coordinated to organize a basic pediatric emergency training course.

It is known that, in addition to the above 2 training courses, to effectively implement the out-of-hospital emergency project, as a leading medical facility, the Provincial General Hospital also coordinated to organize a basic pediatric emergency training course to provide the necessary knowledge for effective treatment and emergency care within the first hour and provide practical skills in emergency care for seriously ill patients, children with circulatory disorders, basic emergency care, children with shock, convulsions, drowning, and cardiac arrest.

Organize a training program on “community first aid” for students who are traffic police and fire police to equip them with knowledge in approaching and initially assessing victims in first aid; cardiopulmonary arrest (CPR); using an automated external defibrillator (AED); first aid for foreign bodies in the airway; how to initially assess trauma, external bleeding, stop bleeding and bandage wounds; fix broken bones, head, neck and spine injuries; transport victims in emergency situations and practice situational drills...

Organize a "community first aid" training program for traffic police and fire police trainees

Dr. Le Van Dung - Deputy Director of the Provincial General Hospital said: "Up to now, the hospital has trained 50 qualified doctors and nurses to provide emergency care outside the hospital, of which 8 are qualified to guide and train lower-level medical facilities in emergency care outside the hospital. In addition, the hospital has also arranged an additional surgeon for the Emergency - Poison Control Department to perform emergency situations outside the hospital, minimizing the omissions related to surgery during the implementation of emergency care outside the hospital. The hospital has also expanded the Emergency - Poison Control Department, arranged additional equipment and machinery to be able to receive and treat about 20 patients at the same time.

The Emergency and Anti-Poison Department was expanded to meet emergency and treatment needs when the out-of-hospital emergency project was implemented.

In addition to improving out-of-hospital emergency skills for all doctors and nurses in the hospital, we will focus on training and improving out-of-hospital emergency capacity for lower-level medical facilities and the community so that when situations arise, they can be handled promptly and quickly. It is expected that in 2026, about 300 classes of 20 students each will be organized to train in out-of-hospital emergency skills and knowledge.
