Jafar Miadfar, the head of the National Emergency Organization, announced the organization's plan to hire 500 people in the field of emergency medicine. This action comes at a time when the need for human resources in this area, especially in crisis situations, is strongly felt.
Preparedness of the National Emergency Organization in Crisis Situations
Miadfar, referring to the organization's past experiences in wars and crises, emphasized that this organization has always been ready to provide services to the people and that multiple meetings for preparedness and planning are currently being held. He expressed hope that the enemy would not make a mistake and that an attack would not occur, but at the same time, the National Emergency Organization is prepared to face such situations.
Distribution of Ambulances and Fleet Renewal
The head of the National Emergency Organization also referred to the measures taken to strengthen the country's ambulance fleet, stating that nearly 200 ambulances have been distributed recently. He added that these efforts have continued after the 40-day war, and we are still in the process of purchasing ambulances for fleet renewal.
Miadfar also announced that in one or two months, 500 individuals will be recruited in the field of emergency medicine. He clarified that these programs are designed to complete the necessary capacities for human resources and to address shortages in this area.
Increase in the Capacity to Admit Emergency Medicine Students
The head of the National Emergency Organization also mentioned the changes made in the admission process for emergency medicine students, stating: "This year, one of the actions we have taken is to increase the share of local student admissions. With the directive from the President, the capacity for local admissions has increased from 30% to 70%."
He expressed hope that candidates will consider the field of emergency medicine in their field selection. According to Miadfar, this field can be suitable for candidates for two reasons: first, that 70% of the admission capacity is conducted locally, and second, that graduates of this field can work in emergency medicine.
In conclusion, the head of the National Emergency Organization emphasized that these programs are pursued to meet the necessary human resources and strengthen the operational capacities of the emergency services so that the organization can maintain its readiness to provide services in both normal and crisis conditions.
