    Thanks, Charlie & Gavin

    This means that we could arrange a training session for potential demonstrators on how to treat a person in shock in order to fulfill this requirement
    - much cheaper and less hassle than a First Aid course at the college.

    Please keep us informed if any of the rules get changed.

    Best wishes, Doris

    I've just sent an email round my association to see who has first-aid skills. Quite likely that many members will have as we have volunteer firemen, lifeboat crew, charter skippers, fish farmers, school teachers ... It's quite astonishing how many folk have to have a first aid certificate these days.

    I can see that we need a 'my association has more diverse/interesting professions than yours' thread! Perhaps Mull has already won that one ....

    G.

    PS That's me straying off topic - sorry.

    Hmmm, as we don't actually have a category on the membership form for 'occupation', it was partly guesswork on my part. Quite a lot of us have more than one 'hat'. Can get very confusing, especially for a bird of very little brain, remembering which particular hat one is - or should be - wearing at any given time!

    Absolutely right Mrs/Mr. Trog. There are a great many of us here on Mull. As a qualified first aider myself, which means not a great deal other than confusion as some of the first aid processes seem to change like the wind, I have never been instructed on treatment/recognition of anaphylactic shock. It is a subject that we should all know about, treatment etc. Maybe I am on my own here, but if not then it is time to remedy that somehow.

    Well, I knew you'd have to be a qualified 1st aider, Popz, but you'd be surprised how many other members have volunteered, too, including one with specialist knowledge regarding anathingammywhotsit shock! Should be no trouble having at least one present at every practical meeting, though a casualty might get suffocated with all the first aiders wanting a go at once!
