First Aid Workshop

The workshop trains people in the First Aid and BLS techniques necessary to deal with both medical and traumatic emergencies.

Additionally, the workshops seek to dispel common misconceptions on how to treat medical conditions, teaching individuals about the dangers of incorrect handling and improper First Aid which can both lead to additional complications.

Individuals who complete the workshops feel empowered with the knowledge that they are first responders who can provide First Aid and BLS and in some cases help save a life in the time that it takes the ambulance to arrive.
