Intern doctors received hands-on emergency response training during a special Adult Life Support session held on May 11 by the Taiwan Medical Mission in Eswatini.
The course, designed to sharpen practical skills in real-life scenarios, focused on life-threatening emergencies such as cardiac arrest, irregular heart rhythms, and strokes—conditions that young doctors are likely to encounter early in their careers.
The training session featured case-based discussions and group activities. Participants engaged closely with the facilitators, asking questions and exchanging ideas on how best to handle critical medical situations.
Later in the day, the interns practiced cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and the use of defibrillators. The exercises allowed them to apply theoretical knowledge in a controlled setting and improve their readiness to act during actual emergencies.
