First Aid anytime and anywhere
December 1st 2005

St. John Ambulance now offers First Aid audio files for people to download to their portable MP3 player or phone to burn to a CD.

iFIRSTAID offers advice on the steps someone should take if they come across an accident and can be downloaded from the charity's website at: www.sja.org.uk/ifirstaid.

Files include information on performing a primary survey at an accident scene, identifying and treating burns, bleeding, shock and fractures, rescue breaths and chest compressions, and the recovery position.

The organisation points out that iFIRSTAID tips are no substitute for First Aid training, but are a quick reminder to boost confidence and reinforce knowledge.
