SUMMARY:First Aid Course
DESCRIPTION:If you happened across a medical emergency would you know what to do? \nIf asked that question most of us would probably\, at the very least\, be unsure of our competency in such an event. \nWhether in the home\, garden\, driving the car or at work there is a continual possibility of accidents happening or someone becoming unwell. The speed of response can significantly improve outcomes for the patient particularly if the first responder has some sound basic knowledge of what to do. \nIf you would like to be able to answer a confident yes to this question Kaipara Coast will be running an all-day First Aid Course in February (note it’s a Wednesday) where you will learn: \n \n\nActions to take at the scene of a medical emergency\nFirst aid priorities\nFirst aid techniques\nPerformance of CPR\nOperation of an Auto Defibrillator\n\nAt the successful completion of the course you will receive a course certificate which is valid for 2 years. \nTea\, coffee and a light lunch will be supplied by Kaipara Coast. \nIf you would like to either achieve this training for the first time or maybe refresh the knowledge you already possess please book your place as soon as possible as numbers are extremely limited. Please see below for cost and booking contact info.
