Air Crew Resuscitation Simulation Course – Refresher Course on Disaster, Search and Rescue
Air Crew Resuscitation Simulation Course – Refresher Course on Disaster, Search and Rescue
Targeted for aircrew officers, air medical officers and air medical nursing officers, the first Air Crew Resuscitation Course was completed on 3 December 2016 with six participants. The course provided foundation knowledge and hands-on experience of pre-hospital and helicopter resuscitation in a simulated environment.
The Hong Kong Jockey Club Disaster Preparedness and Response Institute (HKJCDPRI) supported the Hong Kong College of Anaesthesiologists and Government Flying Service (GSF) for better training effect by developing 360-degree virtual reality films and a helicopter cockpit mock-up.
During this full day course, participants were trained in different simulated scenarios to practice resuscitation skills, triage during disasters, airway and cardiovascular management, trauma and burn management, as well as equipment handling for infection control. Debriefing sessions with facilitators were carried out to discuss the simulation and areas for improvement.
