Assignment (due Sunday on Canvas)
First Aid Training Plan
First aid is assistance you give to an injured or sick person until full medical treatment is available. For this media piece you are selecting first aid training (new or a refresher course) that you plan on getting at some point in the future.
Your first aid training selection could be a course offered in your community, a web-based online course, a book/model series to purchase, or other form designed by medical professionals.
You do not have to complete the training for this assignment, but we hope you do at some point soon, possibly included as part of the final portfolio.
You are turning in:
A. what the training is that you selected,
B. where you can get this training. Be specific. Is it a community-based course, offered at a particular website, a set of books, etc.?
C. why you chose this particular form of first aid training.
Choose a professional first aid training, for example a course offered by a local medical center. Here are a few online options:
