Course Description
When a serious injury occurs, you have to think and act quickly. Medical assistance may be only minutes away, but sometimes seconds count. What you do in those first few seconds and minutes can make the difference between life and death. Quick, calm, and correct action can make all the difference.

“First aid” is emergency care given to the sick or injured before medical personnel arrive. That’s why a knowledge of first aid and CPR, or cardiopulmonary resuscitation, is so important. And that’s why you’re participating in this session today.
