Senior first aid training

Ooo... Was so nervous for the Senior first aid training which is conducted as a 16 hours course spread out over two days. The part i was MOST nervous about is the mouth to mouth resuscitation. I was terrible at that. The instructor keep telling me to blow, blow BLOW! Apparently, most of the time I wasn't able to inflate the mannequin's chest. The instructor is a lady who is kinda impatient, had a bit of bad preparation and slightly biased from the Royal life saving. At least it is obvious that she is biased to the gals. She likes to say 'good gal' after each lessons to us 3 gals (amongst the 18 participants). lol... So kinda had an advantage.
Managed to learn how to do those bandages which is handy to learn and some tips that i haven't learnt about. But being in the class and having to watch those videos of rescue... omg... those bones and bloods totally freaks me out. All the time, trying to keep my food in my stomach where it belongs.
A classroom of Chaos...
Being bandaged like chinese dumpling...

Looking forward to mummification...

Argh!!!


This course has been renewed 3 years ago and some of the life saving techniques that i have come to learn from Malaysia just doesn't apply here. I wonder if Malaysia has updated their first aid techniques. Like the airway blockage and how to clear it, and the DRABCD. We also did the scenario planning where we either pretend to be the rescuer or the victims. It was fun yet kinda panicking for the rescuer coz the instructor will always go 'quick quick quick, the victim is dying' or something like that. lol...
