Learning outcomes
Ethical and legal standards call for first aid to be a leader in civil and moral duties. However, first aid is often complicated by the fact that human life-saving acts learned in courses have been forgotten over time and, moreover, the rules for lay-up first aid, especially for resuscitation (crosstalk), are regularly adjusted according to the latest findings of medical science (for the last 10 years has been updated. The aim of the course is to deepen and update the knowledge gained by students at the secondary and / years ago only at elementary school. Emphasis is placed on practical skills.
At the end of the course, the student will be able to provide first aid to people with injuries and acute conditions, will know how to register school injuries and will be able to teach pupils on 1st st. Primary school basics. Furthermore, he will be able to effectively deal with the protection of entrusted persons in the event of extraordinary events.
