MOCA, Espaillat.-The Civil Defense Station 28 in the province of Espaillat, is developing first-aid training days for its volunteers and the interested public as part of efforts to strengthen the knowledge and skills needed to respond to emergencies and risk situations.
The training is carried out under the provincial direction of Victor Alfonso Vásquez, with the participation of Angelo Rodríguez, instructor of the National School of Risk Management, who is responsible for providing technical knowledge in this important area.
The days in the PEDEPE rooms are designed to prepare and update participants in first aid procedures, initial care for people affected by emergencies and other key techniques to act in a timely manner in the event that may endanger the life and physical integrity of people.
