First Aid Saves Lives
First Aid Saves Lives
Do you have the confidence to save someone’s life?
First aid doesn’t stop at the workplace.
According to Road Safety Alliance figures, 40% of road fatalities could be saved if first aid is given at the scene before emergency services arrive (RSA 2020). For everyday accidents, that figure is as high as 79%.
Learning something as simple as safely opening a casualty’s airway could save someone from suffocating before an ambulance arrives.
