First Aid
- FOR LIFE
First Aid
To provide effective first aid, we need to recall knowledge, apply skills and use necessary equipment or materials even under psychological pressure.
The presence of trained people who can provide proper first aid can save lives and prevent risks in cooperation with the help of qualified medical personnel.
For the above reasons, a First Aid programme was created, based on the principles of distance learning, to enable trainees to recognise problems, take necessary measures and acquire the necessary knowledge and confidence to administer first aid. The programme lasts 25 hours in total, with 5 modules of 5 hours each and includes a self-assessment quiz at the end.
The program is addressed to Citizens, Coaches, Firefighters, Police, Security, Educators, Pharmacists, Nursing & Medical staff, and other professionals. Medical staff, Child and elderly care workers and generally those involved in health professions or sports and all population groups who want to acquire the necessary knowledge and confidence to provide first aid.
