Crisis Management and Education in Health

Abstract

The paper is devoted to the crisis management field in the emergency medical services (EMS) in case of emergency with mass health disabilities, and education of crisis management staff. Acts related to EMS in the Czech Republic do not specify a particular professional profile and education targeted at emergency preparedness, crisis management on the list of medical professional staff. This fact is reflected in the personal equipment of EMS emergency preparedness workplaces in each region of the Czech Republic. In practice, the crisis management system is often faced with a lack of inadequately professionally trained and experienced staff. The paper suggests possible approaches to enhance the education effectiveness in the field of crisis management in pre-hospital emergency care.
