Education and Training of Emergency Medical Team
Main Article Content
Abstract
To date, multiple disaster education and training programs for Emergency Medical Teams (EMTs) are available. However, most are centered on individuals’ professional development rather than on the EMTs operational performance. Moreover, no common overarching or standardized training frameworks exist. In this report, an expert panel review and discuss the current approaches to disaster education and training and propose a three-step operational learning framework that could be used for EMTs globally.
