Course Description

The rise in chronic illnesses and medical risks and emergencies have increased demand for emergency services, which in turn means we need more emergency and ambulance care assistants as a critical component of the emergency medical services system. This course teaches you the fundamentals of ambulance care and first aid. We begin by discussing basic first-aid techniques that you need to know in the event of an emergency, such as assessing the situation and performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). We describe the medical terminology and abbreviations used to describe various medical conditions and treatments. We then go over various methods used to monitor an individual's health. Paramedics and emergency care assistants respond to emergency calls together, assisting each other in providing potentially life-saving care and transporting patients to the hospital as needed. This course identifies the various types of vaccines and their importance and describes various types of injuries and their appropriate first-aid treatments. Finally, we establish the importance of critical thinking in emergency situations and show you how to make quick and effective decisions under pressure in order to provide appropriate patient care. This training is designed for those who want to become ambulance care assistants or healthcare professionals who want to work in emergency medical services. It also suits anyone who wants to learn first aid to be prepared for any medical emergencies.
