Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
No Intervention: Theoretical education

Experimental: Theoretical education PLUS simulation training

Other: Simulation training
The intervention will consist of training participants through simulation in addition to theoretical training. The simulation will cover 3 themes, including diagnosis of haemorrhage, communication between healthcare providers, management of post-partum haemorrhage and transfusion monitoring.
