One of the strategies in strengthening the healthcare providers in mitigating the impact of COVID-19 pandemic is through training Safety and disease unfamiliarity with COVID-19 was the main reason for developing this dedicated specialized training modules in order to address the issue The training modules were developed based on three strategies that are learning from experience, design suitable dedicated module and identify weakness and vulnerability The training modules created were donning-doffing of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), airway management and cardiopulmonary resuscitation of suspected COVID-19 patients which were delivered through immersive life simulation technique A total of 178 Emergency Healthcare Frontliners (EHFs) were trained Each module was guided with a checklist that the participants found to be very useful None of the participants reported developing symptoms of infection after undergoing the face-to-face simulation training even after two weeks of post-training periods Seven important steps were found to be crucial that contributed to these findings which included room space, participants number per group, COVID-19 screening, taking of temperature, hand sanitization, PPE, and equipment sanitization before and after training Hands-on training with guided-checklist was found to be very useful to the EHFs in managing an unfamiliar situation of COVID-19 In time-constraint-resource-limited conditions, training modules should be focused on addressing the pressing problem at hand In conducting a face-to-face training, precautionary safety measures should be strictly adhered to prevent the spread of the disease

The Prince of Songkla University, Pattani campus is located within the restive areas of Southern Thailand’s insurgency. The violent situations have been continuingly deteriorating since 2004, whilst local civilians; including young people, have undergone different forms of mental distress. Hence, this cross-sectional survey aimed to compare levels, characteristics and associated factors of resilience among university students at the Pattani campus, located in the restive area of Southern Thailand’s insurgency, and a nearby province (Hatyai campus). The study was conducted between 8th August, 2018 and 8th October, 2018, at both Prince of Sonkla University, Pattani and Hatyai campuses. All of the participants completed the personal information, and Thai resilience questionnaires (Thai-RQ) by themselves. The data were analysed using the R program, for both descriptive statistics and logistic regression. Most of the 443 students, who studied at Prince of Songkla University, Pattani campus were females (80.3%) and Muslims (76.3%). Most of them were at a normal level (55.7%), within the domain of resilience, with the highest prevalence, being coping strategy (75.9%). No significantly statistical difference of levels, or characteristics of resilience were found between the two campuses. Satisfaction towards: university teaching, age, religion and birth order were also significantly associated to resilience among university students in the restive area. However, only gender and satisfaction towards university teaching were found in the non-restive campus.
