The main event of the IV Moscow Forum of volunteers in the field of health care was the regional championship in first aid. The forum was held at the end of October in the Lomonosov cluster, journalists of the KP-Bryansk website reported.
The competition was held by the resource center "Mosvolonter" and the Moscow city branch of the Russian Red Cross. Students and college students solved situational problems for a while. The conditions were made as similar as possible to the real ones, with scenery and imitation of wounds.
The audience at the forum gathered very different, from teenagers to the chief doctors of the capital's clinics. There are now more than 20,000 health volunteers in the city.
The experience of the capital was also appreciated in the Bryansk region. Dmitry Kornilov, a member of the Presidium of the Bryansk Regional Branch of the Russian Red Cross, believes that such meetings are useful to the entire volunteer movement.
“Activities of this magnitude contribute to the development of health volunteerism. The exchange of practices between regions allows us to improve the quality of assistance and form common approaches to training volunteers. I want to highlight the format of first aid competitions. It gives an opportunity to consolidate skills that can be useful to every citizen in real life, commented Dmitry Kornilov.
