Originally I wasn't looking forward too much to it as it would be two full days from 8.30 till 4pm! I'm not used to getting up that early, especially in the middle of the holidays!
It didn't turn out that bad, thanks mainly to the really funny First Aid demonstrator guy we had! He's from Britain, and was really funny! He also shared quite a few funny anecdotes! I'm not too sure if they were supposed to be funny....but we laughed anyway!
Over the two days, we worked through the book covering all these different injuries we could come across, like electric shock, cuts, concussions...I think you get the point! Some of the photos were quite gruesome!
Some of the most fun parts of the course were the practical exercises! On the first day we got to do CPR on a dummy, as well as doing a roleplay with a partner, where one person was injured in a car accident. In the second day we got to practise bandaging arms! Some people got a bit carried away and ended up bandaging other people's heads!
At the end of each day we finished with a short multiple choice quizz, in order to determine if we were good enough to get a First Aid Certificate. Fortunately I got mine!
Now I am ready to save the world!
