The Guardia Civil headquarters in Tarragona recently hosted a collaborative workshop with the Sistema d'Emergències Mèdiques (SEM) to enhance joint response capabilities during medical emergencies.

The session focused on immediate healthcare techniques that officers can apply before specialized medical teams arrive. Key topics included hemorrhage control using tourniquets and identifying cardiac arrest situations, which are critical for patient outcomes in the first minutes of an incident.
Participants engaged in practical CPR exercises using training mannequins to reinforce life-saving skills. Additionally, the Guardia Civil presented its operational functions within Catalonia, aiming to foster mutual understanding and ensure a more efficient and coordinated public safety service for the citizens of Tarragona.
