 First Aid is the care given to a casualty before professional help arrives. It can come from a member of the family, a friend, or a stranger who happens to be on the scene. The help they give can literally mean the difference between life and death.
- The aims of first aid are:
- To preserve life
- To prevent the worsening of injuries
- To promote recovery

Any emergency situation requires prompt action, and an untrained first-aider can find themselves at a loss to know what to do. The First Aid course is available in two formats: Emergency First Aid and Standard First Aid. The courses have been designed to help first-aiders in emergency situations by providing treatment solutions for common situations.
