Manipal Hospitals, Goa in association with Block Development Officer (BDO) Tiswadi and Goltim Navelim Village Panchayat, has organised the workshop on Pre-Hospital Care & Basic Life Support under the RAKSHAK programme (an initiative with the Government in adding skills to the people of Goa by providing Basic Life Support Training to face emergency situations) for the elected members of the Goltim Navelim VP.
In continuation of the Pre Hospital Care & Basic Life Support workshop under the RAKSHAK programme being provided by Manipal Hospitals, Goa since October 2022, the island ‘Divar’ was identified as an island where it was felt that the need of the hour was to train the islanders so that in case of any medical emergency the villagers could act proactively and render the necessary medical care until the patient is taken to the nearest hospital.
Under the leadership of Anil Dumaskar, BDO Tiswadi, and in consultation with Mario Pinto, Sarpanch of Goltim Navelim VP, the much-needed training was provided to the elected members of the Goltim Navelim VP on June 18.
The training was provided by the Emergency and Trauma doctor and medical team of Manipal Hospitals, Goa, and was well appreciated by the members of the panchayat who expressed their desire to have many such medical training sessions.
Commenting on this, Surendra Prasad, Hospital Director, Manipal Hospitals, Goa, said, “It is a matter of great pride for Manipal Hospitals, Goa that the much needed Pre Hospital Care and Basic Life Support training under the RAKSHAK programme was provided to the elected members of the Goltim Navelim Village panchayat.”
