| The Support Committee and Firefighter Team of Fall 2013's ASI-Yorito! |
Introduction
"Certificate in Integral Health"
was developed with volunteers who work with various local
organizations in Yorito, Honduras. Working together, we have worked
hard to emphasize the importance of contributing to the well-being of
the people, especially those in need.
The course takes place from September
27 to September 29. This systematic program was developed by The
Executive Committee and Dr. Byron Morales over a period of three
years. The workshop was directed by firefighters of Yoro, under the
command of Lieutenant Vallejo. All was executed satisfactorily, and
all went as planned.
President of the Support Committee
Jovel González, eloquently expressed words of welcome to all of the
participants and introduced the team of firefighters. He briefly
explained the purpose of the volunteer group and their intentions for
being in Yoro, and concluded by inviting the volunteers to take
advantage of the opportunity by asking questions.
Jovel, on behalf of the Secretary of
Health of Yoro, gave a brief review of general health concepts and
the importance of these concepts to the lives of individuals,
families, and society. He also highlighted the consequences that
occur when the recommendations of health specialists are ignored.
He then ceded the floor to the
firefighters, who touched upon topics related to first responders.
Methodology
The firefighters employed a method
called staggered rhythms. . They formed three working groups and in
sequences, each subgroup took turns examining the first responder
module. These themes included:
-Definition of First Responders
-How to react in an emergency and
apply first response
-Bleeding and how to control it
-How to protect wounds
-Breaks and fractures, and how to
proceed
-Shock and how to help
Results
Active participation of 98% of the
participants during the first responder training. 14 volunteers from
the local fire squad and "World Vision" experts joined us
in the development of the workshop.
