Seems to be a reasonable response:

Venezuela
Emergency And Disaster Preparedness: An Experience In Training Undergraduate Medical Students

In the very first year of medicine, the subject called Primary Techniques in Medicine I trains students in first aid, taking advantage of the anatomical and physiological knowledge they are acquiring in other classes.

Second year students study Primary Techniques II, where they learn procedures such as the use of probes, the interpretation and execution of medical orders, and mobilization and evacuation of hospital patients. By this stage, undergraduates can help rescue teams by providing first aid, or they can give support as paramedics in the observation or handling of the injured.
