Re: who among us is first aid trained?

I used to be a Life-Guard, but never kept up with it, so I'm trained, just not recently. I wouldn't take charge giving FA unless it was a dire situation.

Re: who among us is first aid trained?

Now I know that I am first aid trained
if any people come to me sayin they are t1 I will wonder how you got to life threatening injuries in an airsoft skirmish

[kipper66]

i am FA trained. merchant seaman standard, so i've been trained with spinal injurys etc.

never ever want to use it, but if i need to, i can do what needs to be done,

Re: who among us is first aid trained?

im a first aid trainer and assesor, never had to use it at airsoft tho ;/ must be one of the lucky ones, there is a mountain of injuries possible, head injury, dislocatos, fractures, cuts, embeded objects, spinal injuries. not many of them really caused by the BB's tho lol

Re: who among us is first aid trained?

First Aid trained, sadly I've had to use it on someone that came close to going into shock after breaking their ankle. Other than that, I've just helped out with various cuts and other minor injuries with my small FA kit that never leaves my side. To echo the folks above, the amount of paper work and potential legal action (for trying to help?) you could face means it's best to leave it to the site staff and only ever step in if it's required and appropriate.

Re: who among us is first aid trained?

I have various training, FA at work, lifesaver etc. with st john, people your first aid does expire... and things tend to change of the years just so you are aware.
