Asian countries which had a major disaster before

In many developing countries, medical rehabilitation and healthcare services lead up to home rehabilitation are not properlyprovided to patients while acute treatment in hospitals is considered as important. It may cause increasing the bedriddenpatients and persons with disabilities who cannot return to society. Because enhancement of medical rehabilitation relatedsignificantly to quality of life of the patients is often neglected despite the importance among healthcare services andteam medical care, it is presently high needs area. In Vietnam, establishment of initial response for disaster medicine(triage education, first aid, infection control in acute phase, stockpiling and emergency contact system) in hospitals is anurgent task. As the scale of disasters and accidents is great, long-term rehabilitation for victims and communityreconstruction activities are more required. Against this background, this course is designed for participants withlectures, site visits and exercises, putting emphasis on establishment of initial response to disaster in core hospitals andrehabilitation activities in the perspective of the process from acute phase through medium to long term.

This course provides knowledge and techniques for the prevention of LSRD, and understanding through the experience is thebasic concept of this training course. Participants recognize their own physical condition through the medical check-up atthe initial stage of the training course. After one month exercise in the training course, they can understand how theexercise has effects on their physical condition by the results of another medical check-up. In addition in February, 2012,the follow-up meeting inviting all the ex-participants of this training course was held in Fiji.We will take the results of this meeting into consideration for the next implementation of this training course. One ofexpected outputs is teaching materials for dissemination of LSRD prevention measures. This is a motto of training program "See one, do one, teach one", in other words "First time, look somebody to do , second time do yourself , and third timeteach how to do for colleague".
