In a powerful step towards enhancing workplace safety and emergency preparedness, Marengo CIMS Hospital recently organized a comprehensive Basic Life Support (BLS) training session for employees at Mitsubishi Electric. The session, led by Dr. Harshil Mehta, Zonal Head of Emergency Medicine, was designed to equip participants with essential skills needed to respond promptly and effectively in emergency situations, potentially saving lives in critical moments.
This hands-on training provided a thorough understanding of life-saving interventions, beginning with patient assessment and extending to emergency techniques that include CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) and AED (Automated External Defibrillator) usage. Through practical exercises, employees gained not only the theoretical knowledge but also the hands-on confidence necessary to address sudden medical incidents with calm and precision. Dr. Mehta and the Marengo CIMS team emphasized the importance of recognizing symptoms and understanding response protocols to ensure employees are prepared for any health emergency in their workplace.
Marengo CIMS Hospital’s commitment to community welfare goes beyond hospital walls, as it continually seeks to foster health awareness and preventive care in local communities. “Our mission is to build a safer, healthier environment by empowering individuals with the skills and knowledge they need in times of crisis,” said Dr. Mehta. By providing this training, Marengo CIMS Hospital aims to create a ripple effect, with trained individuals contributing to a culture of safety within their workplaces and communities.
The Mitsubishi Electric employees left the session equipped with newfound confidence in their ability to respond to emergencies and empowered by the knowledge that they could make a real difference. This initiative exemplifies how partnerships between healthcare providers and companies can actively contribute to creating safer workplaces and, ultimately, saving lives.
