Feedback:
- The time allocation for both education and break was amazing in HICARE program.
It made us feel one day goes so faster without boring.
- The lectures given by Professor Hirohashi at Advanced Emergency and Critical Care Center, Hiroshima University Hospital and Dr. Kamada gave me an opportunity to renew overview on radiation emergency preparedness. Now I am aware that we need to make a decision to break stereotypical views in the case of unpredictable situation.
I would like to consider how we should response and to provide manual.
- With the contents of researches on Radiation, experiences of hospitals, visiting memorial museum in good balance, whole the training was useful.
- I understand the activities of main constituent facilities of HICARE. I could learn in details about reality of A-bombing including restoration after devastation from A-bombing, Radiation effect, support measure and system for A-bomb survivors as well as data gained from experiences and researches.
- I learned how much Japan is taking care about health management for A-bomb survivors. I hope such the measures for A-bomb survivors are applied in Korea, too.
-Through visiting major constituent facilities of HICARE, I could learn about total support system for A-bomb survivors in Japan including researches, medical treatments, diagnoses and prevention
- I would like to use what I learned about the extent of the damage cause by radiation as well as Permissible Dose to the training and education in my country. Also I would like to inform these knowledge to many more people.
