I used to arrange Emergency aid courses 4 my pupils during a whole yr group citizenship day which I facilitated annually. I would contact @BritishRedCross/@stjohnambulance to help in the free hands on workshops. Worth investigating as they were superb & so informative - eg CPR.

Everyone knows that first aid is essential. The best way to learn it is to follow a course with a trustworthy organisation. However, if you are too busy or just want to refresh some notions I recommend this free, online course. firstaidforfree.com/free-onl… @firstaidadvice

In the (draft) topic poisoning in the @IFRC International first aid guidelines 2020, dry cell battery poisoning will also be included. People should always contact their GP or another professional caregiver as soon as they suspect that a button cell has been ingested. @Redcross

Following on from our button battery First Aid Flashcard. This image shows the burning effect of a button battery on a sausage. If swallowed, these batteries can lodge in the esophagus (gullet) and cause serious internal damage. #firstaiding #firstaid #firstaider #CPRcertified

It sounds and looks like a good idea. But are we expecting first aiders to carry one? Surely even if they are in the first aid box we would hope that at least compressions have started before the box arrives. Yes wait for the face shield if concerned but compressions straight off
