    Advanced First Aid, CPR and AED

    Course Objective

    • Emergencies can occur by any means, whether it is the workplace or at home.
    • Medical emergencies oftentimes are drastic, require immediate and safe intervention, and quick access to emergency services.
    • All individuals in any scenario require first aid skills to effectively understand the medical emergency at hand by identifying it effectively, providing concise and adequate information needed for the emergency services, and assessing their knowledge to perform the specific first aid techniques needed for that scenario to preserve life, prevent the condition from worsening, and promoting recovery.
    • Workers must also establish the extent of their knowledge from this course, as a medical intervention without interruption is critical to save injured personnel.
    • Learners shall also be stressed to follow hygiene and health procedures during and after treatment.
     The following points shall be discussed in the course:
    • Identify the main hazards of the workplace which can lead to an emergency occurring.
    • Physiological causes of emergencies and their effects on the human body.
    • Distinguish the difference between different hazards and how they cause different emergencies.
    • Understand the importance of hygiene and health to know how to protect yourself from any disease.
    • Identify the differences between the primary and secondary surveys.
    • Identify the adequate response for the primary and secondary survey.
    • Demonstrate and know how to perform resuscitation techniques such as CAB, CPR, and AED.
    • Demonstrate and know how to assist someone who is actively choking and how to help yourself.
    • Understand the differences between external and internal bleeding.
    • Know how to stop external bleeding by using different methods depending on the severity of the blood loss.
    • Identify internal bleeding and how to stop it.
    • Identify what shock is, the causes of shock, and how to stop its progression. 
    • Distinguish between heat exhaustion and heat stroke and how to prevent its progression.
    • Identify diabetic emergencies and how to intervene.
    • Practically perform several types of splints.
    • Identify Neck and Spinal Cord injuries and how to prevent its progression.
    • How to lift the person away from a dangerous area if they have neck and spinal cord injuries.
    • Identify how to treat wounds and decrease their severity. 
    • Identify how to treat burns and decrease their severity.
