Study course “Red Cross and its principles” has successfully ended

28.01 2016 Uncategorized

We are pleased to announce that a 2 month long study course “Red Cross and its principles” at the Red Cross Medical College of Riga Stradins University has successfully ended.

On January 26, students of study programmes “Nursing” and “Physic” took a final exam. 33 future nurses and medical assistants showed their newly gained knowledge about the international Red Cross movement and the development of the Latvian Red Cross.

The course gave an opportunity to look at the Red Cross from a theoretical perspective (its main activities, policy, first aid, international cooperation, youth activities, health promotion, volunteering) as well as to be practically involved – they visited several social centres of LatRC.

We say big THANKS to students for their diligence and staff for a successful cooperation!
