Humanitarian work can be challenging and aid workers are often far from quality emergency medical care – participants attending DRC courses receive up-to-date knowledge and training in basic emergency life support medical care until arriving at a clinic or hospital including training blending tactical combat casualty care and tactical trauma life support approaches. Participants are taught to assess an emergency scene, control bleeding, apply splints, support an airway, and perform CPR and other basic life support skills.
Being operational in Lebanon, DRC will be providing a First Responder course. It is a 2 days training, delivered by a highly qualified trainer, following an algorithm according to internationally recognised standards of American Heart Association and the European Resuscitation Council (ERC).
