First-ever civil protection first aid training in Väike-Õismäe settlement
On April 5, the Väike-Õismäe settlement received their first civil protection-themed first aid training at Tallinn Õismäe Gymnasium. In addition to theory, paramedic Andrus Lehtmetsa guided participants through real-life first aid techniques. This is just the beginning; four more groups will receive specialized training sessions.
We are delighted to continue working with paramedic Andrus Lehtmetsa for the second year in a row. More than 40,000 Estonians have learned first aid under his supervision, and now these valuable skills will be taught in Haaberst to the people of Väike-Õismäe in a crisis context. The training focuses on the question of what is most important in first aid, particularly during a crisis.
Common myths will be debunked, various types of injuries, unexpected accidents, and medical cases will be investigated, and by the end of the day, all participants must be able to show their skills. The reason for this is that modern first aid knowledge can save lives in both everyday situations and crises, whether natural or man-made, such as the conflict in Ukraine. Each participant will also be given a certificate confirming that they have completed the training programme.
🟧🟦 The activities of the K-24 project will be carried out by the Crisis Research Centre, and the implementation of the project activities is supported by the Civil Society Foundation through the Ministry of the Interior.
