PRINCIPLES OF TRAINING OF NATIONAL POLICY EMPLOYEES ON PREMEDICAL AID

Abstract

Based on the experience of organizing and conducting trainings for the National Police in the field of premedical care, the program “First on the spot” sets out the key principles of such training, which underlie long-term knowledge and practical skills aimed at rescuing a person in urgent need. The basic principle of training for the premedical aid of National Police staff is its standardization in various educational institutions and educational departments. The rules of such standardization include: the availability of a unified material and technical base, the corresponding training facilities, prepared according to the standard program of instructors for provision of medical assistance, the availability of uniform teaching materials. The second principle is the system approach. It consists in a clear understanding of the role of the police in the system of succession assistance to victims and patients, taking into account the existing system of emergency medical care, both in individual and in mass cases, which is achieved through joint training with rescuers and physicians. The third principle is the introduction of a continuity of education system for the police system for medical assistance. The implementation of these principles is the key to long-term knowledge and practical skills aimed at rescuing people in urgent situations, because global statistics indicate that the police are coming to the scene quickly.

The training of the National Police in the field of premedical assistance is an important element of their training. The introduction of the principles of standardizing the training of police officers on medical assistance, the systematic approach and the continuity of education is a key to successful completion of their tasks as well as to save lives in urgent situations.
