ABOUT THE COURSE
Working in uncertain and sometimes dangerous or hostile environments requires humanitarian workers to have many tools at their disposal to keep themselves and their colleagues safe. Knowing how to employ first aid, particularly in the field, is one such skill that can help minimise the damage done by incidents encountered in unpredictable and unstable work environments. This one day course teaches a pragmatic understanding of the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and is designed to equip the participant with practical skills in Emergency Patient Care with an emphasis on the safety and well-being of the person responding to the incident.
