The Come Back Alive Foundation launched the educational and training center for tactical medicine
The Come Back Alive Foundation completed a fundraising campaign for the development of educational and training centers for tactical medicine as part of the "Holding you!" project and has already launched the first pilot center. The press service of the Come Back Alive Foundation announced this. The first educational and training center has already started its work at one of the training grounds of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
In just one month of his work, 1,800 recruits learned skills in tactical medicine. The Come Back Alive Foundation team handed over the following equipment for three educational classes:
- three tents with power and heating systems and all needed equipment -- projectors, screens, chairs;
- simulation equipment, training mannequins, and training supplies: turnstiles, bandages, splints, etc.;
- training kits - basic sets of equipment for instructors.
Training of recruits
The Ukrainian military is taught by 12 instructors who have been trained to teach the ???? ?S? -- All Service Members Course. It is the standard for pre-hospital care on the battlefield, developed for all military personnel who are not medics.
It is used by the armies of NATO countries, and last summer, the transition to it was approved by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Training battalion commander Pavlo describes training in the new training center as follows: "The tent has everything from a mock of a wounded person to a projector that shows how and what to use.
Previously, we had all our practice outside in any weather. Now it has become much more convenient. And the quality of training is higher because we are able to work more professionally, and the servicemen can learn the information better."
10 hours are allotted for tactical medicine training in the 30-day basic general military training course. Journalists witnessed the final session of one group. "We use combat simulation.
We combined the practice of evacuating the wounded, first aid, and elements of tactical movement to consolidate all the information learned," says Oleksii, the training ground instructor.
