Meeting of students with military doctors

19.3.2021

On March 18, 2021, a meeting on the topic “On Emergency Medical Care” was held at the Educational and Research Institute of Pedagogy and Psychology.

The directorate of the Institute of Pedagogy and Psychology invited military doctors of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to this event.

The Law of Ukraine “On Emergency Medical Care” provides for the definition of a person’s emergency state – this is a sudden deterioration in physical or mental health, which poses a direct and inevitable threat to the life and health of a person or those around him or her. Emergency medical care is assistance that consists in the implementation by medical workers in accordance with the law of urgent organizational, diagnostic and therapeutic measures aimed at saving and preserving human life.

Medical workers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine told the students about providing first aid in case of electric shock, bleeding, sudden cardiac arrest, open wounds of the respiratory tract, fractures, burns, etc. They practically showed how it is necessary to save a person’s life. In addition, they demonstrated a first-aid kit and announced a list of medicines that should be included in it.

Everyone needs to remember that any delay in providing assistance, as well as the inability of the one who helps to provide qualified assistance, leads to the death of a person. The military medical service presented the university with a medical bag, which contains a set of medical supplies for first aid: sterile medical dressing bags, hemostatic tourniquets, medical napkins, thermal packs, bandages, a thermal blanket on a polyethylene base, a nasopharyngeal air duct (air duct, tube) with lubricant and etc.

Students and teachers thanked for the interesting, professional information and presented the doctors with notebooks.

“The main treasure of life is health. And in order to preserve it, you need to know a lot,” – this is how professional military doctors finished the meeting with students and teachers.
