Advanced First Aid April Session 2012

21 & 22 April 2012

Two weeks after Regional Competition 2012, Regional Training Department had organised Advanced First Aid Course (April session) to benefit potential members within Wilayah Persekutuan KL. The two-day course had taken place at SJAM Training Academy located at Cheras, KL. Five members from our division had registered for the course and managed to gain more First Aid knowledge for proficiency in Pre-Hospital Care.

Participants from our division! (But one was not captured...)

Organiser had invited doctors, nurses, and trainers to conduct the classes for various subjects, such as Airway and Oxygen Administration, Emergency Childbirth, Radio Communication and more. Practical session with necessary equipments was prepared for participants to practice on-hand too!

Practical time! (That dummy is just so heavy! )

 After two-day AFA course, participants were given for about two weeks for revise on the subjects taught during the course and they were to sit for AFA qualification exam in order to be qualified as AFA qualifiers (aka healthcare providers). Hope everyone had enjoyed the course and good luck in the exam!
