Last night we ran another Casualty Care refresher for RNLI Southend Lifeboat.
Initially we revised the use of the Oxygen, BVM, suction, OP airways and use of the AED, as well as the CPR and drowning protocols.
We then ran through a scenario using a heavy full sized manikin, with the crew working out how to provide treatment on the small D boat, setting up a resus area, transferring the casualty, and running through a resuscitation attempt using all the equipment mentioned above, to add some realism to the training.
A really useful session which I enjoyed facilitating. Thanks to all that attended!
