    Abstract:
    NATO Advanced Training Course on Best Way of Training for Mass Casualty Situations was held in Haifa, Israel in November 16-18, 2009. In total, 22 participants from 8 countries of the Partnership for Peace and Mediterranean Dialogue Programmes attended the course. The participants, divided within three groups, discussed and practised the training methods for the preshospital aspect, the hospital aspect and the non-conventional aspect of the mass casualty management. An international team of experts, among others, used following teaching methods: general lectures, guided discussions, utilization of advanced multimedia tools, tabletop drills, and large scale drill as training tools. The trainees also learned about medical and clinical simulation as a training tool, and subsequently practiced it. A mass casualty drill was held in Rambam Health Care Campus at the end of the Course. The trainees of the course participated as observers and reviewers in the drill, and debriefed it together with Rambam medical staff. Realisation of the successful course was made possible by utilizing a grant of the NATO Science for Peace and Security Programme.
