Please also see attached some pictures from first aid training sessions.

Our first aid training is for the lay person or the professional who would like to re-fresh their skills.

 

We encourage all our members to regularly to do basic life support and first aid training as we see this as a significant part of our emergency response. It is far easier to arrive on the scene if the initial 5 min prior to our arrival have been pro-active and not destructive to the patient. In any emergency situation all over the world there will always be a certain emergency response time during which one is waiting the arrival of professional help. There is so much that a lay person can do which can enhance the outcome of survival for an individual – something as simple as the recovery position can save a life. We feel it is our responsibility to encourage a certain level of knowledge to all with regards to first aid and life support techniques.



Our team is equipped with adult and paediatric mannequins which allow them to perform professional workshops with hands on practice of the latest CPR techniques. Our mannequins are electronically connected to a CPR feedback device which can show you the success of your heart massage techniques that you are using and measure your effectiveness with regards to providing the simulated patient with enough oxygen to survive.

Our presentations are done on laptops and projected onto a blank wall or onto a white screen via a LCD-projector. Ideally training done through us would require a fairly large room where this can be effectively seen by all participants and enough space for the mannequin to be used for the practical sections of the training. Should you be involved in particularly high risk activities which expose you to very specific risks you can inform us in advance and our medical team can try to tailor our workshop to your needs. For example if you work in a remote location and would like more emphasis on first aid for snake bites for example.
