First aid

By Dr.Adam Huber (MBBS)

Completing a first aid course is a good idea if you are planning a trip overseas. The set of skills you will learn will also benefit you at home and can be another tick on your CV when job hunting. Try the following sites for local courses and first aid kits:

First Aid International (http://www.firstaidinternational.com.au/) course and kits

St. John Ambulance Australia (www.stjohn.org.au) a one day course with St.Johns is a pretty invaluable tool for your travels.

RedR (www.redr.org/australia) offers training for humanitarian relief fields

First Aid Store (http://www.firstaidstore.com.au/) first aid kits, great for hikers
