An introduction to first aid
Imagine: Whilst feeding your child, they start to gag and appear unable to breathe. You have tried slapping them on the back, with no success. They seem close to losing consciousness, their lips are turning a definite shade of blue. People rarely give first aid a thought, until the day they need it. The above scenario is the sort of every day occurrence that can so easily lead to tragedy.
However, with the correct first aid training anyone could, in the short term (until the arrival of the emergency services) save a life. These notes have been designed to aid you with your first aid training. It is, however, not a substitute for hands on training from a professional first aid trainer, but a reference for you to look back on when you need to. We hope the training you undertake with us will give you the knowledge and confidence to, if the worst happens, help keep someone alive.
