FIRST AID TRAINING

At ARTC all recruits are trained in First Aid so that they are confident in providing First Aid in a military environment.

The training covers the following areas:

• The principles of First Aid,
• Managing an unconscious casualty,
• Treating shock and minimising trauma,
• CPR and EAR,
• Controlling haemorrhage,
• Managing burn injuries,
• Treating common injuries,
• Immobilising fractured bone,
• Managing special wounds.

At the completion of the ARTC First Aid course recruits have obtained the equivalent to a St Johns Senior First Aid Certificate.
