Keeping knowledge up to date is key to providing safe and efficient patient care in critical situations. Specialize with the most advanced program, which includes 
the latest developments in coronavirus infections"

Healthcare professionals must be specifically prepared to act in an emergency situation in order to maintain the level of quality and safety in patient care. Adequate updating becomes an indispensable tool to ensure safe and efficient care. They must be prepared to identify and deal with any critical situation they encounter quickly, with full capacity to plan, manage and apply the necessary health resources at the different levels of medical care. This includes patient care processes involving patients with emergency conditions, emergency situations, as well as incidents of special operational difficulty, whether they are the result of an accident with multiple victims, seismic or climatological phenomena, or even war or terrorism.

The medicine applied in emergency situations must also contemplate a wide knowledge of the available means and equipment, their applications and complications, so that they can be used in each specific situation. For this reason, an adequate updating of knowledge requires a comprehensive approach to techniques, procedures and application regulations, a complete and exhaustive training program that becomes an essential tool to identify and deal with any critical situation, especially in circumstances 
of special operational difficulty.

This includes disaster situations, where material and human resources become insufficient, infrastructures are severely damaged, and the number and severity of patients generate particularly critical situations. These features call for a specific and in-depth approach to management, organization and health care in adverse circumstances. Catastrophic events in the recent past show the importance of having health professionals with specialized training to be able to provide care in particularly serious circumstances.
This program provides students with the knowledge and skills required to provide emergency health care quickly, efficiently and safely. Tools that will allow you to properly assess emergency patients, to know and apply the appropriate procedures in each situation, or to become familiar with the drugs frequently used in critical situations. All this through the most up-to-date training program, including the latest developments in coronavirus infections.
