The Lanzarote Security and Emergency Consortium held this Saturday a practical training exercise in the care and management of polytrauma in adults, aimed at the healthcare staff of the Doctor José Molina Orosa University Hospital, as part of the activities programmed to mark the 35th anniversary of the Lanzarote Fire Department.
“We thus continue with the activities that highlight the work carried out by the professionals and, furthermore, also generating a dissemination and knowledge activity for the citizenry,” assured the president of the Security and Emergencies Consortium, Francisco J. Aparicio.
The activity took place between 10:00 and 13:00 hours and was focused on the simulation of real emergency situations, allowing healthcare professionals to reinforce action and coordination protocols in the care of patients with severe trauma.
During the exercise different intervention scenarios were recreated, with the aim of improving the response to complex emergencies, strengthening coordination among the different teams involved and putting into practice the action procedures in cases of polytrauma.
From the Consortium, the importance of this type of training exercises is highlighted, which allow training response capacity and improving coordination between emergency services and healthcare personnel, fundamental aspects to guarantee rapid and effective care in critical situations.
