  I don't know...
  
  The most I know is roughly what to do if someone gets injured e.g. breaks an arm/leg and various ways of bandaging injuries...
  
  Unfortunately when my sis got cut by pieces of glass some years back, somehow it didn't strike me that the glass pieces could've been lodged in her flesh and I flatly bandaged her (before going to the hospital) instead of using a ring bandage... -____-

  It always good to know how and what to react during a disaster..
  
  Don't take things, esp your life, family and friends for granted.

  go look up the community clubs.. they should have..
  
  btw, i hope we never become like a society in the US.. where even those who know CPR are afraid to do it because they may be sued...
  
  it's come to a stage where those who know it and try to help someone who is down end up being sued by the relatives...
  
  i've tried my damnest to save someone before.. 1-man CPR for 45 minutes because the ambulance was caught in a bigass traffic gridlock.. the guy still passed on from a heart attack... i could barely move the next day because the effort is massive...
  
  go learn... of everything i learnt how to do in green, the medic course is the only thing that is applicable in real life

  That's so expensive. But compare to a precious life, $90 is nothing.
