First Aid is the assistance given to any person suffering a sudden illness or injury, with care provided to preserve life, prevent the condition from worsening, or to promote recovery. Start-Rite Schools hosted the Nigerian Red Cross and participated in three-day training to provide First Aid Training and Services within the workplace to meet emergency needs.
Staff members present for the course were given the knowledge of First Aid treatments and were given access to First Aid kits and safety equipment to carry out their role as qualified first aiders. Their role is to keep casualties safe until they can get more advanced medical treatment from a doctor or health professional or go to the hospital.
