22.01.2022 interestingly the local facebook community posted an article on finding a white tip spider today. there are lots of myths about these spiders. at our first aid classes, we give additional information about all spider bites here in canberra and surrounds.

22.01.2022 love our updated logo. thank you basic bananas for your design work. it retains the original history of our turtle and love of underwater with a clever red-cross.

20.01.2022 wow. some interesting statistics from the international company I also teach first aid with. for example. "A general lack of knowledge puts everyone at risk. Approximately 150,000 people in the UK die each year in situations where a bystander with first aid training could have made a difference." https://www.emergencyfirstresponse.com/myths-about-first-a/

18.01.2022 hi everyone, waiting on notification from my RTO who is awaiting confirmation from ASQA if we can continue teaching. will keep you posted and let you know

18.01.2022 stay cool this summer. here is some introductory information about heat related illnesses as we approach 2021 What is hyperthermia? Hyperthermia may be caused by excessive heat absorption from a hot environment, excessive heat production from metabolic activity, failure of the cooling mechanisms, or an alteration in... the body’s set temperature. Hyperthermia can lead to heat exhaustion and heat stroke. What is dehydration and how do you manage it? Dehydration happens when fluid intake does not equal perspiration loss. The casualty has a clammy skin, weak pulse and is nauseous, dizzy and anxious. Replace fluids by encouraging them to drink water, juice, or sports drinks. You should seek medical help if symptoms get worse or don’t improve within 24 hours, the casualty is elderly or an infant, or if you think a prescription medication caused the dehydration. What is heat exhaustion and how do you manage it? Heat exhaustion is when the body temperature rises beyond its normal core temperature but is still less than 40C. Indications include fatigue associated with headache, nausea, vomiting, malaise, dizziness and possibly collapse. It is important to lie the casualty down, loosen and remove excessive clothing, moisten the skin with a moist cloth or atomiser spray, cool by fanning, give water to drink (only if fully conscious). Call EMS (dial triple zero, 000) and keep the casualty in the shade. remember we do teach more about these illnesses and others during our first aid classes stay safe :-) information sourced from our PADI RTO first aid student material

14.01.2022 Brilliant chat. Thanks @basicbananas

14.01.2022 The focus these days is on saving lives with CPR typically after a cardiac arrest. Remember though first aid is much more. Last week's example of Lorrie just knowing how to attend to other scenarios like serious bleeding (when you are on your own) made a big difference and after a week, glad to know the injury is well on the mend
