Medical Emergency
This is a phrase that most of us do not want to hear and a situation that we certainly hope to never be in.
Medical emergencies are situations that render many of us in a vulnerable state. Don’t know how to act, don’t know who to call, don’t know the proper next steps to take.
Ask yourself, “if you were ever in a medical emergency, would you know what to do and what care is needed to treat a victim properly?”
If your answer is NO or there is even a slight hesitation in your answer, then it might be the perfect time for you to consider taking a formal First Aid training course.
First Aid Training increases your awareness and reduces your susceptibility to accidents.
Getting trained in first aid helps you become alert to potential hazards and medical issues. It increases your health awareness and allows you to take better care of yourself, your friends, coworkers, and your families. It creates resilience among Australian communities.
First Aid Training helps you become prepared for anything.
None of us know when or where an emergency will happen, and we do not know what the future has in store for us or those around us. Sudden illnesses such as stroke, heart attack, severe bleeding injury, and cardiovascular problems may occur at a very unexpected time. All these emergencies require immediate medical attention, and if you have little to zero knowledge of First Aid, you might not be able to help save a person’s life.
First Aid Training makes you feel empowered.
Learning First Aid and its basic lifesaving techniques will give you the knowledge, skills, and confidence to act appropriately when an emergency occurs.
You will know how to respond calmly and prevent the already bad situation from getting worse. You can prevent a medical emergency from rapidly deteriorating and help stabilise the patient until further medical help arrives.
First aid saves lives.
As we all know, first aid intervention can mean the difference between life and death. A study conducted by the Red Cross showed that a staggering 59% of deaths from injuries could have been prevented if only first aid had been given in the first few minutes of the incident before an ambulance arrived.
Immediate first aid application has a huge impact on someone’s chances of recovery and often affects the victim having a short term or more permanent disability.
