First Aid Training

Introduction

An Emergency may occur anytime anywhere may be at home, workplace or any public place and if it is a medical emergency then we need to act immediately. Many deaths can be prevented if first aid is provided immediately. The initial assistance provided to the victim on injury or illness has a huge impact and it can preserve life, prevent worsening and promote recovery.

The basic first aid and basic life support training constitute knowledge, skills and techniques which can be performed with limited equipment and administered until the medical professional assistance arrives. This vital life-saving skill will retain the condition of the victim from deteriorating and makes them feel safe and secured.

Everyone requires basic first aid and basic life support knowledge to act and respond in any medical emergency condition. Recognizing what actions need to be taken to control the emergency situation will make the difference between life and death. More workers with knowledge of first Aid and life support will make the workplace safer and secure which can save someone’s life.
