Al Hillah University College, Department Of Anaesthesia Organises A First Aid Awareness Campaign

A group of students from the Department of Anaesthesia Techniques (O2 Medical Team) organised an awareness campaign about first aid and its importance inside Al-Hila University College and outside in remote areas, where a number of first aid boxes were distributed to a number of schools and some orphanages.
The campaign, which lasted more than a day aimed to raise awareness and familiarise itself with first aid treatments and its importance in cases of burns, electric shocks and airway problems (chocking and suffocation)
They also explained the right treatment steps and what individuals must do before arriving to the health care centre as these steps can sometimes be the difference between life and death.
Therefore, proper training and speed factor are considered key elements of first aid.
