Abstract

AimRadiation‐related injury in the general population due to accidents or incidents is a rare but significant event that merits serious study and planning in the health‐care system. Therefore, we developed different levels of training courses targeting medical emergency response and treatment for radiation‐related injury in patients, for different health‐care professionals and medical students.MethodsThe curriculum, teaching instructions, and objectives were based on the working group consensus of first responders of radiation‐related injury. The working group included different specialists from hospitals, medical schools, and government radiation emergency response agencies.ResultsSeveral different course levels, including lectures, group discussions, case and scenario discussions, hands‐on practice, tabletop drills, and drills were included. The curriculums have shown that developing different levels of courses for medical students and health‐care professionals was feasible.ConclusionThrough the cooperation of different specialties and different interactive courses, the training programs were able to meet the initial education goals for medical emergency and radiation‐related injury for medical students and health‐care professionals.
