COURSE OVERVIEW.
DURATION: 1 DAY (08:00 - 16:30). LOCATION: Abu Dhabi, UAE
THIS 1 DAY COURSE IS DESIGNED FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO HOLD AN ACCREDITED,
CURRENT FIRST AID QUALIFICATION.
Structured to build upon this qualification and to then take the individual from an emergency services dependant system of training to a level where they are able to deal with incidents and accidents in remote or hostile locations, applying life-saving techniques, with confidence, to casualties suffering from significant life-changing trauma.
Many travellers to high risk or elevated risk locations have the peace of mind afforded by medical Insurance and medical evacuation cover, in the reality of an incident that help may be remote access to doctors or nurses, up to the point that the casualty can be safely delivered to an evacuation area or rendezvous.
This course is designed with this reality and the experiences of our highly trained and competent professional instructors. The end result is to provide delegates with the techniques to get their casualty to that evacuation point or into a secondary care environment, with the highest possible probability of survival
