TRNC 2nd Ambulance Rally on 27 May
Within the scope of the symposium, at 9:00 a.m. on 27 May 2019, 2nd TRNC Ambulance Rally will be held at EMU Health Sciences Faculty. Despite the fact that the word ‘rally’ reminds us of the teams speeding with their vehicles on roads, in the ambulance rally, the paramedics will compete against each other using their knowledge and intervention skills. In this competition, the teams will walk to the stations placed at certain points on the campus and intervene in the cases determined by the scenarios. The aim in the said competition is not to finish a task faster than others but to complete it without mistakes.
Courses will be Offered
In addition to the symposium, various courses will be offered at Faculty of Health Sciences. On 27 May 2019, courses on Triage and TYD/İKYD, on 28 May 2019, courses on EKG and vascular access through USG, and on 29 May, patient carrying and stabilisation courses will be offered to those interested. Further information on the courses and registration is available at 0533 844 48 99 or simay.sertbay@emu.edu.tr.
