First Aid & CPR

First Aid Training in India is the need of the hour. There seems to be a huge gap between the layperson and medical professionals. The current scenario suggests that there seems to be a lot of unrest in the community resulting in lack of faith in the profession at large, maybe due to the excess amount of information on the internet and sometimes or rather most often not clinically applicable. It is developed exclusively by doctors trained in emergency medicine who have faced such challenges or situations and a renowned paramedic in the United States who has written the most popular books in EMS, the IL&FS First Aid Training Program in association with Limmer Creative, will provide the right clinical expertise with the right technology of delivering aid to someone in an emergency. Saving lives is important but what is even more important is to do it correctly.
