No Coastwatch West Fife member will ever know when they may see someone needing First Aid !
This can be anything from a minor graze or cut to someone thrown from a horse or who has even stopped breathing.So, all members will be trained to Level 3 "First Aid at Work" or "Emergency First Aid", receive full instruction on the use of a Defibrillator and have opportunities to enhance their skills even further.
In Addition, not only will First Aid kits be available in the station and carried on patrols but members on duty will be able to summon additional assistance quickly by radio.
Coastwatch West Fife can offer a basic First Aid awareness course to children from 8-16 years old.
Mini Medics is a very simple and practical introduction to First Aid and Defibrillation that will show respect for the child's age and ability whilst at the same time teaching the importance of helping someone who is poorly or injured.
