20.01.2022 Sad to say but often people are too self absorbed to pay attention and often refuse to move left or try and beat an emergency service vehicle cutting them off, or run the light to beat them cutting them off again. How would you feel if it was your loved one waiting for help and the ambulance took extra to get there due to the ignorance of others...

16.01.2022 Sink your fangs into this #FirstAidFriday post. Most Australian spider bites, including those from redbacks, are not life-threatening. The exception to this is ...a bite from a funnel web or mouse spider which can be deadly if not treated properly. Signs and symptoms of spider bites (excluding the funnel web and mouse spider) include: - Immediate pain at the bite site which becomes hot, red and swollen, sweating, swollen glands and nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. Treatment incudes: Applying a cold compress Resting and reassuring the casualty Seeking medical aid for pain relief Calling Triple Zero (000) for an ambulance for significant or life threatening symptoms, otherwise see your general practitioner Regularly monitoring and recording vital signs Beginning resuscitation if necessary The venom of funnel web and mouse spiders is highly toxic and acts on the central nervous system. If a casualty has been bitten by one of these spiders they will display one or more of the following signs and symptoms: - Tingling around the mouth, muscular spasm or weakness, severe pain at the site, profuse sweating and copious secretion of saliva, confusion leading to coma and difficulty breathing. Treatment includes: Resting and reassuring the casualty Applying the pressure immobilisation technique Calling Triple Zero (000) Regularly monitoring and recording vital signs and resuscitation if needed.

07.01.2022 Never handle a bat whether it's dead or alive! We've unfortunately had 6 incidents in the Wide Bay of people being injured from a bat in the last 17 days. Two o...f these incidents involved people trying to handle what they thought was a dead bat. In one case the bat wasn't actually dead, and in the other the person was injured by the dead animal's wing claw. All bats potential carry Australian Bat Lyssavirus and any exposure via a bite or scratch could lead to infection. The drought and recent fires mean you may see more injured or dead bats due to loss of habitat and food sources, If you do see a bat please don't handle them. You should contact a bat care organisation or call RSPCA1300 ANIMAL (1300 264625) For more information visit: https://www.health.qld.gov.au//media-rele/latest-news/bats See more
