First Aid

Anyone can accidently become a victim.  Anyone can also be an eyewitness to an accident and a provider of first aid.  Therefore, it is vital to acquire first aid skills in order to be able to provide first aid to oneself and others without being afraid.

LatRC offers both training on the provision of first aid and the provision of first aid in different events. (LatRC can provide first aid in an emergency situation, or teach you how to provide first aid in emergency situations).
