[Institute of Global Nursing] Participated in emergency resuscitation training conducted at Mahosot Hospital in Laos

On August 29th, Professor Naoko Nishimura Professor Kyoko Shimazawa participated in an emergency resuscitation training session held at Mahosot Hospital in Laos.
This was the second time this training has been held, and it was conducted as part of the "JBI Evidence Practice Training" which Professor Nishimura has been continuing to support since last year as a JBI-certified trainer, and the participants were 22 doctors and 39 nurses.

In his opening remarks, Professor Nishimura spoke about the significance of utilizing evidence to implement quality improvement in clinical practice, and Hospital Director Mahosot also gave an opening address.

The training took place over the course of a full day, with lectures in the morning on team communication during emergency resuscitation, BLS (Basic Life Support), and ACLS (Advanced Life Support), followed by practical exercises in the afternoon.

Participants gave feedback such as, "I learned something new and would like to continue this training in the future." It was rare to see multidisciplinary training involving doctors and nurses, and training involving staff from different wards such as the ICU and emergency outpatient department, all of which were highly praised. It also seemed stimulating to be able to communicate with nurses with different years of experience.
