Important Days
This year 2023, World First Aid Day is celebrated on the 9th of September (Saturday). On this day, many people from local and worldwide organisations gather to work together to educate people about the importance of having basic first aid skills and their role during emergencies.First aid is an emergency measure that often consists of simple, frequently life-saving measures that the vast majority of individuals can learn to execute with minimum equipment and no prior medical knowledge. The term “First aid” relates to the administration of care to a human provided by a bystander (s), though it is not considered medical treatment and does not replace expert medical interventions.
