| Course contents : | Whether at work or in private life, any citizen is likely to face acute situations.
Our Criminal Code provides for compulsory assistance.
This is even truer for professionals, who must have the required means and specific skills.
The First Aid course aims at providing students with the necessary skills for globally managing emergency or acute situations, including basic life support and automated external defibrillation.
Generally speaking, first-aid skills should include: general situation analysis, ensuring local security, calling rescue teams, giving first-aid treatment and watching over victims while waiting for rescue teams. |
|
| Course objective : | At the end of the course, students will be able to:
- assess situations;
- see to everyone¿s safety;
- move victims in danger;
- get appropriate aid;
- stabilize osteoarticular lesions;
- take care of burns victims;
- control external bleeding;
- anticipate circulation distress (state of shock);
- take care of victims with chest pain;
- and in particular detect vital disorders (consciousness, breathing, circulation) and give appropriate first-aid treatment (clearing the respiratory tract and lateral position, ventilation through mouth-to-mouth resuscitation with or without a protective device, thoracic compressions).
Students will also be introduced to Automatic External Defibrillation (AED). |
