TECH presents this postgraduate certificate as a unique opportunity to get up to date on Psychological First Aid in a guaranteed way and through a 100% online program"

The health crisis unleashed by the covid-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of Psychological First Aid. Tens of thousands of people around the world suddenly suffered the consequences of this virus, seriously affecting not only their physical health, but also their mental stability. Overnight, medical professionals had to assume the role of support for families who lost a family member without being able to say goodbye, for patients in whom the disease left irreversible sequelae, and for people who saw their personal and work routine blurred.

In fact, numerous studies conducted from 2021 onwards have determined that there has been a significant increase in the number of patients with depression or disorders associated to covid suffering in a protagonist or passive way, increasing, also, suicidal thoughts and cases of insomnia. Based on this, the performance of physicians as mediators of the situation through the application of adapted psychosocial strategies has been significant and highly beneficial for the recovery of their health.

For this reason, TECH and its team of experts in this sector have considered it necessary to develop a program that allows specialists interested in this field to update their knowledge regarding first aid protocols. Thanks to this, this 100% online postgraduate certificate has emerged, an innovative and dynamic qualification with which graduates will be able to perfect their medical skills in the application of Psychological First Aid in a guaranteed way. In addition, it is a flexible program that can be perfectly balanced with the activity of your practice, allowing you to design the academic calendar based on your own availability, without schedules or presential classes.
