TN to train first responders near accident hotspots to cut fatalities
September 04, 2025
|The New Indian Express
To handle all exigencies
WITH the aim to strengthen the response mechanism to road traffic accidents (RTA) and reduce mortality, particularly on highways, the Tamil Nadu Health Systems Project (TNHSP) has started training 50 persons residing within a one-km radius of 50 accident hotspots across TN to act as first responders.
The programme will be implemented in collaboration with EMRI Green Health Services and GVK Enterprise, which operates the 108 ambulance service. The first responders to be selected will also be trained in managing medical emergencies caused by poisoning, snake bites, drowning, and other exigencies, sources said.
The programme, which started last week as part of the Tamil Nadu Accident and Emergency Care Initiative, is in progress in Vellore, Tiruchy and Madurai.
