PORTSMOUTH, Dominica, Feb. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The American Canadian School of Medicine (ACSOM) is pleased to announce a new partnership with the Dominica Fire and Ambulance Services Portsmouth Unit conducting a training initiative with 12 fire officers.

"We are proud to collaborate with the local fire department in this important training endeavor," said Dr. Bauman. "This initiative exemplifies our shared commitment to fostering a safer and healthier community."

The training session was aimed at enhancing the emergency response capabilities of the fire officers, and was facilitated by Dr. Eric B.

By equipping fire officers with essential life-saving techniques, we aim to bolster the resilience of our community when faced with medical emergencies.
