GWO First Aid
The aim of this course is to enable participants to recognise signs and symptoms of life-threatening situations and administer safe and effective first aid in the Wind Turbine Industry and Wind Turbine Generator environment in order to save lives and prevent further injury, until the casualty can be handed over to the next level of care.
Description
After successfully having completed this BST First Aid Course, the participants can:
- Act independently in recognising, assessing, and prioritising the need for basic first aid and providing lifesaving first aid until the casualty can be handed over to the next level of care in case of an incident in the Wind Turbine Industry / WTG environment.
- Take responsibility for recognising the limitations as a basic first aider, calling for help and enable evacuation of the casualty in case of an incident in the Wind Turbine Industry / WTG environment.
