SVETLANA PLĂMĂDEALĂ

My choice for medicine was made years ago, when I was only 15 years old and when I started to study in a nursing school. After, I continued my studies at State University of Medicine and Pharmacy "Nicolae Testemițanu" in my country. My dream to be a doctor came true when I got into the biggest emergency hospital in Chișinău, as a trainee in Anaesthesia and Intensive Care. I should recognize that I was one of the luckiest pupils born under a lucky star thanks to a lot of opportunities, offered by life: a lot of fellowships, seminars, courses, relationships, and friends anywhere: in Romania, Israel, Austria, Great Britain, Belgium. I have had the chance to be one of the candidates of Teach of Teachers course offered by ESA. Since 2013 I am involved in Simulation Training and for this reason I did a lot of training in Romania and Great Britain.

Today, I am an Associate Professor at my University for the Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Department, Coordinator of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Department in our nice and high-performance Simulation Center (cusim.md), Local Director of ATLS, and instructor in BLS and ALS.

My clinical practice is closely related to the only JCI accredited hospital in our country, MEDPARK International Hospital, where I am involved in the management of the patients in cardio-vascular surgery, obstetric patients, orthopedic, etc.

Last year I was recruited as an instructor and now I am a member of the VFPM and giganode.org team, which is an empowerment and education network.
