The Effectiveness of an On-line Training Program on Hospital Medical Staff to Improve Fire Knowledge

February 17, 2016 updated by: Paul Lee, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of an online training program on medical staff in five public hospitals located in Sichuan, Yunnan, Hubei, and Fujian Provinces of China, on improving fire knowledge.

Methods: Participants will be randomly divided into control (receiving non-fire video training) and intervention (receiving hospital fire video training) groups. All participants will complete a questionnaire of fire knowledge before and after receiving the training.

Hypothesis: If the online training is effective, it can be promoted as a convenient and effective use of training and be promoted to other hospitals.
