first aiders??

hey, i was just wondering how many of you MAPers are first aiders or have participated in a first aid course

 

I learnt first aid when I went to work experience.
I was a life guard.
I had to do CPR on those god damn dummies:cry: ............they freak me out ........not good.
I've also done a lot of first aid as I was growing up.

 

Nope, I havent done a course yet, but I want to do one. I think it may be on the sheet for our coaching certificate, so I will defo do one

 

No, but I'd be interested.

 

im with the st johns ambulance service so i get front row seats at rugby matches

 

Yep. I've been through at least two. It's part of our school's curriculum.

 

I not only particapeted in them thoe. I teach lifesaving cources (bronze star, medallion, and cross). I'm a Pool and Waterfront lifeguard (have been for 2.5 years), certified CPR-C, SFA, and Oxygen addministration.

 

considering the dangerius nature of the sport id suggest that you do have some general knowledge of first aid...

 

Me

 

Before I did my black belt I was told to sort my self out a course as part of my BB examination.

 

Bronze Medallion twice now

 

I'm a first aider and I've also been on the tv with it as well and it keeps being repeated on sky. I'm not saying which programme as I feel really embarrased by it as if you see me on it I'm saying a naughty word when I realise the camera is there and they've still kept that one in lol

 

Yes, I'm a scout, so I better know first aids.

 

I recently did the 4 day British Red Cross course, it was excellent.

 

Yup I am currently doing a first aid course at the moment

 

I was in Boy Scouts when I was first taught first aid. From basics to survival, I had to learn it. Now I'm being taught again in U.S. Army JROTC.

 

I was an EMT full time for a year. Then I was still EMT certified up till about 6 years ago.

 

i've just started doing some lifeguarding work at a local pool, so i've done all the first aid involved in the pool lifeguard course, but i also went to st john ambulance things a few times and did basic first aid for my level one football coaching course.

 

I make my living as a firefighter, and in the US most proffesional f/f are EMT or paramedic. SO the simple answer is yes..and I use it all the time.
