EUMED Focus Group Meeting in Aachen
On May 15, the EUMED focus group gathered in Aachen to discuss a full agenda. Here you can read more about what was discussed during the meeting.
On May 15, the EUMED focus group met at the Uniklinik RWTH Aachen. The agenda covered several important topics: from e-learnings and patient handovers between ambulance and hospital, to agreements on the use of lights and sirens in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany. The group emphasized the importance of ensuring that this knowledge actually reaches the operational level.
Field experiences were shared, such as the joint training sessions between Ambulancezorg Limburg (NL) and their German counterparts. In addition, Stephan Ortmanns from Rhein-Maas Klinikum gave an engaging presentation on the deployment of the ADAC helicopter.
After the meeting, participants had the opportunity to enjoy the unique view from the hospital’s well-known helicopter platform and received a short tour of the emergency department, guided by the chair of the EUMED group.
Many thanks for the warm hospitality!
