How to Become a First Aid Superhero!
Do you know what to do when you see a child fall off a slide, hit their head, bite their tongue or choke on a grape? Have you witnessed an elder collapse from heat or have trouble breathing? Have you watched a stranger swoop in and save the day? Wouldn’t it be nice to BE that person?
Pacific First Aid offers kits, courses and pretty much everything you need to be your own First Aid Superhero.
Did you know?
First aid acts create community: When your friends and family are helped during an accident or crisis, they feel safe and cared for. They know if an accident happens, you know what to do.
Every first aid act has a story: Have you ever saved the day or witnessed it? Chances are you’ve told the story 100 times. There’s nothing more satisfying than helping someone in need and knowing what to do. Whether it’s something basic like a minor cut or something life-threatening like a cardiac arrest, there’s going to be a story around it.
First Aid superheroes are all around us. You don’t need to be a medical professional or police officer to save the day! The world needs more first aid super-parents, super-siblings, super-grandparents, super-aunties and uncles, and super-neighbours.
