What is first aid?

First aid is the first care given to an injured or sick person in the case of an emergency before medical help arrives. In this course, you will learn the proper techniques for emergencies so you can assess and provide initial care in situations commonly encountered while operating trucks or working in the transport industry.
This includes treating injuries that may occur during long journeys and being ready to handle medical situations in remote locations where immediate medical help might take a while to arrive.
