Active substance: Educational program on basic nursing skills
What this could lead to: If successful, this could show that a short training course boosts paramedics' nursing knowledge, potentially improving patient care in primary healthcare.
What could go wrong: This is a completed quasi-experimental study, not a randomized trial, so results may be less reliable. It only measures knowledge, not actual patient outcomes.
