REC Level 2 First Aid Course
Louise Worsley provided an excellent course teaching participants how to respond to a variety of emergencies in the outdoor environment. The two-day course began with classroom theory sessions during which we were taught the basics of diagnostics and treatment. The best part of the second day was spent practising our newly acquired skills through role play. During role playing a variety of potential injuries were encountered - open fractures, hypothermia, sprains, blisters and exhaustion. In every instance the casualty recovered remarkably quickly.
I am confident that the course participants are now much better equipped to help in a real emergency than they were before the course.
