Teaching methods

Students can view in the form of videos that are available in e-learning, as well as pre-reading for practice. However, they do not take place face-to-face and are available without a time limit. Therefore, studying these lectures is necessary for successfully passing the colloquium.

Assessment methods

First Aid ends with a colloquium consisting of two parts:

On-line test after 7th practise

Practical part – 1 simulation focused on the access to the unconscious and CPR of an adult or child; the evaluation of the simulation follows a standardized checklist - OSCE (Objective Structured Clinical Evaluation); the course is basically no different from what students will get used to in Practice.

Language of instruction
