| Summary: | Pre-hospital care is among the critical components in the healthcare delivery system. The effectiveness
of pre-hospital performance relies very much on the competency of the personnel specifically the
knowledge, skills, and attitude of the personnel to provide care at the scene, and during transport to a
definitive care centre. Thus, sufficient knowledge and skills in prehospital care are important to ensure
the high effectiveness of prehospital care. This study aims to review the available previous literature
related to skills and knowledge of prehospital care competency among the healthcare personnel of the
Emergency and Trauma Department. A systematic review was conducted with twenty-one articles.
The articles were searched systematically by using the PRISMA 2020 framework and the PICO and
PICOS frameworks were used for study selection. Three are two themes that emerge in this study: prehospital care and pre-hospital care competency. Pre-hospital competency of the healthcare personnel
of the emergency and trauma department enables early advanced care across a range of disciplines.
Thus, the healthcare personnel of the Emergency and Trauma Department should equip with the
essential knowledge and skills of prehospital care but because of different settings and factors beyond
their control, the knowledge and skills are often affected. |
