On 20 March 2025, the Shupyk National Healthcare University of Ukraine concluded a five-day training course for Ukrainian healthcare professionals in basic life support (BLS) and advanced cardiovascular life support (ACLS).

A team of experienced medical volunteers from the United States, including Alicia Bean, Patrick Baker, and Kristen Pizzuti, lead the training sessions. Their expertise equip Ukrainian medical professionals with vital skills in CPR, airway management, cardiac arrest response, and advanced resuscitation techniques, thereby enhancing emergency response capabilities in hospitals and communities.

As reported, the training programme was organised by MedGlobal, a charitable non-governmental organisation that implements emergency response and health programmes to strengthen the resilience of vulnerable communities across the globe.

This training forms part of MedGlobal’s ongoing commitment to bolstering Ukraine’s healthcare system by providing high-quality medical education and practical experience in emergency care.
