Course Description
Emergency First Aid encompasses the initial medical assistance provided in the event of an incident. While many of us may not frequently encounter scenes of severe injury in our daily lives, basic first aid often involves simple tasks such as applying a bandage to a minor cut.
However, in the event of a more serious situation, it's crucial to know how to respond effectively. This Emergency First Aid course goes beyond basic treatments and equips you with the knowledge and skills to handle common emergency scenarios. From assessing the situation to administering appropriate aid, this course provides practical guidance on how to respond effectively in critical situations.
