The University Hospital Center (CHU) of Oran continues its efforts to boost team competencies by hosting practical training sessions focused on essential life-saving measures. On Tuesday, the institution gathered physicians, paramedical staff, and support personnel for a workshop dedicated to emergency first aid, aiming to hone rapid-response reflexes during critical situations, optimize patient management, and solidify a culture of safety across the hospital.
Following the opening of the training event, attendees participated in a series of theoretical presentations and practical demonstrations highlighting the latest medical emergency intervention protocols. The workshops placed staff members in simulated scenarios to enhance their ability to react swiftly and efficiently to incidents occurring both inside hospital units and off-premises.
The curriculum covered several core components of first aid, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) procedures, management of choking, severe bleeding, and bone fractures, alongside trauma protocols for high-priority emergencies requiring instant action. Special focus was also directed toward advancing professional skills and fostering best safety practices.
Organizers behind the initiative stressed that this form of instruction directly enhances care quality by equipping personnel with tailored reflexes and standardized intervention methods that align with current healthcare guidelines. The primary objective remains delivering faster, more effective, and seamlessly coordinated emergency care.
The session also facilitated constructive exchanges between instructors and trainees, allowing staff to share field experiences and deepen their understanding through interactive discussions and hands-on drills. This collaborative environment helped solidify the practical skills acquired across different departments.
This training day forms part of a broader skills development strategy spearheaded by the CHU of Oran to maintain high levels of clinical expertise among its staff. By embedding continuous education at the center of its human resources policy, the facility aims to ensure ongoing adaptation of healthcare workers to evolving scientific, technical, and organizational standards.
Furthermore, this framework helps streamline inter-departmental coordination, disseminate best practices, and reinforce an institutional culture built on prevention, responsiveness, and continuous quality improvement in patient care.
