The Arab American University, represented by the Faculty of Nursing and the Heart Center, held a voluntary training course entitled "Cardio-lung resuscitation and basic life support" for the local community and the institutions working in the new Askar Camp. In this course, cardiac center staff members participated and presented the necessary skills for cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

This initiative comes as a continuation of the university and the heart center policy in spreading the culture of resuscitation of the heart and lungs and strengthening the partnership between local institutions and the Arab American University, especially in light of the bad security situation that the Nablus governorate and its camps are exposed to.

Dr. Lobna Harazne, Dean of the Faculty of Nursing, pointed out the importance of the participation of Arab American University students in the development and awareness of civil society through the implementation of medical days and awareness workshops for citizens.

In his turn, the President of the Askar Association, Mr. Amjad Al-Refai, stated that this activity comes within a series of awareness and training activities that will be held in the coming days, with the active participation of the staff and students of the Arab American University.
