The webinar will focus on showcasing a variety of WHO clinical tools, protocols and trainings, such as Basic Emergency Care (BEC) and emergency care toolkit, applied to the real-life country context. They serve as the cornerstone for building resilient health systems by implementing essential training and resources that enhance the capacity of healthcare workers to provide timely emergency care effectively.
The WHO clinical toolkit promotes a common standardized approach that all health workers should use when approaching a patient with a medical or trauma emergency ensuring consistent and high quality emergency care across various healthcare settings.
These clinical initiatives align with and support national health policies and emergency preparedness plans, facilitating the integration of emergency care training and protocols into broader health system strengthening efforts. The toolkit empowers healthcare workers by improving knowledge and confidence in handling medical and traumatic emergencies, which enhances overall public health resilience and preparedness. By strengthening core emergency care competencies and capacities, countries are better prepared to handle not only routine emergencies, but also large-scale health crises, thereby contributing to global health security and reducing the impact of pandemics and other health threats.
