First Aid - Day 2

Finished up the First Aid Course today.  We did the final assessments on CPR for the lecturer for child & infant (which was from yesterday's learning) & then dealt with new things today, such as:
-Broken & fractured bones
-Symptoms & Actions for different medical conditions such as hypothermia, heat exhaustion, sprains & strains.


Also learnt loads about different types of burns & how you can combat them, depending on what type of burn it is.

Eg. Chemical burns should see the person put under water for a minimum of 20minutes to remove from skin.

Was a great couple of days, got to get to know the class a bit better, bring on next week.
