Abstract

Introduction: Effective pre-deployment training enables disaster relief medical teams to operate safely and efficiently in resource-limited environments. Objective: This study evaluates the effectiveness of the Singapore Emergency Medical Team (SGEMT) Hybrid Training Course in preparing personnel for WHO Type 1 (Fixed) EMT accreditation and subsequent deployment to Mandalay following a major earthquake. Methods: Training outcomes were assessed using the Kirkpatrick four-level evaluation model, which included post-training surveys, training completion records, thematic analysis of free-text responses, WHO EMT classification exercise, deployment operational metrics and post-deployment evaluation. Results: Participants reported high satisfaction and perceived role relevance (Kirkpatrick-Level-1) Thematic analysis revealed enhanced confidence and operational preparedness (Kirkpatrick-Level-2). After attaining WHO EMT accreditation, SGEMT underwent its first deployment, treating 1,803 patients over eight days, including 33 high-acuity cases with no adverse events (Kirkpatrick-Levels-3-and-4). Key program enablers were realistic scenarios conducted in a collaborative learning environment that reinforced technical and non-technical skills such as team collaboration, open communication, and psychological resilience. Conclusion: The SGEMT Hybrid Training Course helped foster individual and team competencies, which supported effective real-world disaster response. This study provides evidence supporting a multi-component, team-based training model grounded in adult learning principles and offers a practical framework for evaluating EMT training programs

Abstract

Introduction: Disasters exacerbate gender-based vulnerabilities while underscoring women’s critical role in sustaining community health systems. In Aceh, disaster-related damage to infrastructure disrupted access to essential maternal and reproductive health services. Objective: This study reports lessons learned from the deployment of portable ultrasound (USG) within a mobile disaster health response in Bener Meriah, Aceh, focusing on women’s intersecting vulnerability and agency. Methods: A descriptive lessons-learned design was applied using service logs, field observations, team debriefings, and informal discussions with affected women and community midwives during a Universitas Gadjah Mada–led response. Portable USG was integrated into community-based midwifery networks to support point-of-care assessments in isolated areas. Results: Disrupted transportation and damaged health facilities significantly limited access to care. Mobile services using portable USG reduced geographic and mobility barriers, enabled timely assessments, and strengthened trust in health services. Community midwives played a central role in outreach, service delivery, and continuity of care. Conclusion: Disaster health responses are more effective when mobile health technologies are embedded within trusted community-based female health worker networks, reinforcing women’s roles in equitable and resilient health systems.
