Emergency care meet for docs begins
Lucknow: To improve emergency care in govt hospitals, a four-day training workshop, District Hospital Physician Training (DHPT), began in Lucknow on Thursday with participation of 26 doctors from different hospitals.
Following instructions of principal health secretary Partha Sarthi Sen Sharma, the workshop is being conducted by EMRI Green Health Services, which runs the 108 and 102 ambulance services in UP. The training module has been created by EMRI and Stanford School of Medicine, USA. Dr. Kavita Arya, director of Balrampur Hospital, inaugurated the workshop.
Doctors are being trained in emergency care during the critical "golden hour"—the time period of first medical intervention before patients are referred to bigger hospitals.
