🚑 National Ambulance Service Partners YEA to Train 6,000 Community Medical First Responders Across Ghana 🇬🇭

In a landmark move to enhance emergency healthcare delivery and create employment for young people, the National Ambulance Service (NAS) and the Youth Employment Agency (YEA) have signed a two-year Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to train and deploy 6,000 Community Medical First Responders (CMFRs) across the country.

The official signing ceremony took place at the YEA Headquarters in Accra, marking a major milestone in Ghana’s effort to expand access to pre-hospital emergency care, particularly in underserved and remote communities.

Speaking at the event, Acting CEO of YEA, Mr. Malik Basintale, underscored the dual impact of the initiative; tackling youth unemployment while significantly strengthening the nation’s emergency response systems.

He further acknowledged the instrumental effort of the former CEO of NAS, Dr. Ahmed Nuhu Zakariah, whose groundwork contributed immensely to bringing this idea to fruition.

Delivering his remarks, Acting CEO of the National Ambulance Service, Dr. George Kojo Owusu, described the collaboration as both timely and strategic. He emphasized that the addition of 6,000 trained responders will offer critical manpower support to complement the work of EMTs, helping to bridge the crucial gap between the occurrence of emergencies and the arrival of ambulances. He added that this move will ultimately improve patient outcomes and reinforce the entire emergency care chain.

🩺 Comprehensive Training Curriculum
Participants will undergo intensive training based on a well-structured curriculum comprising 10 core modules, including:
• Introduction to Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
• Airway Management & Breathing Techniques
• Circulation Support & Bleeding Control
• Mass Casualty Incidents & Triage
• Emergency Scene Management and more

The instructional methodology combines classroom lectures, hands-on practicals, simulation-based training, case studies, scenario drills, and role-playing exercises, equipping trainees with the knowledge, technical skills, and confidence to respond effectively during emergencies.

This collaborative effort is expected to make a transformative impact; not only by enhancing health outcomes in critical moments but also by investing in Ghana’s youth as agents of lifesaving change in their communities.
