The training took place at the National Institute for Emergency Medicine and was inspected by Tourist Police Commissioner Lieutenant General Saksiira Phueak-am and NIEM Secretary-General Dr Pichet Nongchang. The programme forms part of a partnership between the Tourist Police Bureau, the British Embassy in Thailand and NIEM to improve officers’ knowledge and practical skills in treating injured people during emergency situations.

The initiative aims to enhance the ability of personnel to provide immediate assistance at accident scenes and other emergencies. By strengthening frontline capabilities, the organisers hope to improve the safety of both members of the public and the millions of tourists who visit Thailand each year.

The course was delivered with support from emergency medicine specialists from the North West Ambulance Service in the United Kingdom. The experts shared their experience in trauma care and provided guidance on best practice for managing seriously injured patients in emergency conditions.

The programme also focused on improving coordination between police officers, emergency medical services and rescue teams. Participants exchanged ideas on integrated operational procedures based on UK emergency response practices, with the goal of creating a more efficient and systematic approach to handling critical incidents.

Officials said the collaboration is intended to raise operational standards and strengthen Thailand’s emergency response capability. The knowledge gained during the training is expected to contribute to better coordinated rescue operations and more effective assistance for casualties during emergencies.

Daily News reported that the partnership reflects continued cooperation between Thai authorities and international organisations in developing emergency medical and public safety expertise. Organisers did not announce further details of future training sessions but indicated that the initiative supports ongoing efforts to improve emergency preparedness and operational standards across the country.
