The head of the country's Emergency Medical Services Organization announced the recruitment of about 500 new emergency medical personnel within the next one to two months.

In a conversation with Mehr reporter, Jafar Miyadfar, head of the country's emergency organization, said: "We are ready as always." We were prepared for the 12-day war as well as the 40-day and 17-day war, and we are currently holding several meetings for preparation and planning.

Emphasizing the readiness of the emergency forces to provide services in critical situations, he added: We hope the enemy will not make a mistake and an attack will not take place, but the country's emergency organization has the necessary preparation to face such a situation.

Referring to the measures taken to strengthen the country's ambulance fleet, Miyadfar said: "In recent days, we have distributed nearly 200 ambulances." We have followed these measures after the 40-day war and we are still buying ambulances so that we can supply and modernize our fleet.

Increasing the share of local admission of emergency medicine students to 70%

Referring to the changes made in the admission of emergency medicine students, Miyadafar stated: One of the actions we took this year was to increase the share of local admissions of students to provide the required manpower, which was increased from 30% to 70% by the announcement of the president.

He expressed his hope that the candidates will consider the field of emergency medicine when choosing their field and added: this field can be suitable for the candidates in two ways; Firstly, 70% of the admission capacity is done locally and secondly, the graduates of this field will have the opportunity to work in the field of emergency medicine.

In the end, the head of the country's emergency organization emphasized: these programs are followed with the aim of providing the required human resources and strengthening the operational capacities of the emergency so that the organization can maintain its readiness to provide services in normal and critical conditions.
