First Aid Training

Over the years it has become apparent that the nature and extent of injuries sustained in an accident can often be countered by prompt and proper treatment at the scene. Many lives have, in fact, been saved and the effects of injuries minimised, by proper actions carried out promptly by First Aiders at the scene of an accident, before the arrival of qualified medical personnel. This is in stark contrast to the years when one called for help and then stood back to let fate take its course. This course is specifically intended to endow students with the basic techniques required in an emergency situation, in order to save a life or stabilise an injury. You will then be able to proudly say:

"I MADE A DIFFERENCE."
