Emergency Social Services First Aid Course

On June 13th, twelve intrepid Mayne Islanders participated in an eight-hour interactive ‘Emergency First Aid Course with A Level CPR’. Emergency Social Services initially sponsored the course with the goal of having qualified First Aid attendants available during an emergency/disaster situation. However, individuals with this level of qualification can only be an advantage to our community at ANY time.

Once again, our own amazing Lions Club recognized the benefit to our community, and generously donated a substantial part of the funding for the course. Many thanks to the participants, the Lions and ESS for making this course such a success. Thanks to the ESS Area Coordinator (Moira) for hosting the course debrief at the Springwater Lodge!!
