46 Vietnamese medical workers get int’l trauma life support certificates from US agency

Forty-six Vietnamese health workers have received International Traumatic Life Support (ITLS) certificates following a two-week training course offered by U.S. experts, and Vietnam may have up to 15 international ITLS instructors by this year-end. The course’s graduates have laid a foundation for the ITLS program in Vietnam, making Vietnam the 36th country in the world to have an international ITLS program, Lieutenant Colonel Webb said. It is expected that such Vietnamese ITLS trainers can provide training for local medical staff in the first or second quarter of 2024.
