FBOS- First Person on the scene of an Accident

What to do when you are confronted with an accident on the pathway or road?

 

We all know of someone close who has been involved in an accident.

We also know that if the scene had been managed better, the losses could have been less.

The BMWMCC is holding a workshop for all bike riders, car drivers and their family and friends.

Invite your colleagues, and family to this game changing course experience.

 

Any one of us may be faced at any time with coming across an accident.

Whether while commuting or while driving in the rural areas.

You do not have to be a trained first responder or paramedic to make a real and significant difference.

 

This workshop teaches you vital skills in controlling the scene and in ensuring no one gets hurt any further.

You can be major role player while waiting for the emergency services to arrive.

____________________________________________________

Nothing is more stressful than arriving at an accident scene and not knowing what to do, in which order, who to call, how to make that call count, what to say.......... all while a person or persons are lying injured..

This is not a first aid course!

This is a workshop on what not to do and what to do should you be at an accident scene.

 

This workshop will equip you with the knowledge and essential skills to enable you to function effectively on the scene and make a valuable contribution to the situation outcomes.

There is so much YOU can do to secure the scene,

secure the patients and NOT cause further injury while giving 'assistance' -  

even if you have no first respondent training.

Rendering First Aid is only a part to incident management. You have a very valuable role where seconds count.

With no first aid knowledge you can influence the patients outcome in a very definite, positive way by following simple steps and doing the first things right first time.

Turn your empathy and good intentions into positive incident managing action that will help both the patient and the qualified respondents far more than you will ever know.

You do have a lot to do and you will require teamwork on a scene.

Learn how to go from nuisance to asset in a few common sense approach steps.

 

Power point presentation - which you can save to your flash drive or smart phone/device.

Hand-outs with some clear pointers and prompts to help you remember later.

Group limited to 30 people to retain the dynamic.

Hi Andy - great initiative and would love to attend but are there any plans to have this run at Donford in Cape Town at some stage for those of us down this side of the world?

Pieter,

The reality is that I have a venue with chairs, catering, and space at Stellenbosch and it is closer to home.

I'm doing this for you all, I do not make money, I cover costs of catering, print outs, certificates and travel to and from.

Cape Town is not convenient for me (Gordons Bay).

The dealership does not lend itself to classroom training in terms of infrastructure.

If I were earning money, I would not mind where it was.

I am merely using 30 years experiential knowledge and formal training in terrestrial/air/maritime Search & Rescue (SAR), in rigging and in adventure touring to pass on to others and give back something to society.

(Which is why I am not driving a Porsche and will die relatively poor in material terms).

I am happy to accommodate times within reason but my choice is Stellenbosch because my house is too small.

Thank You, Andy

It was actually a real eye opener. Not just from a FBOS view, but to think that if something happens to me, there could be possible going to be somebody that knows what to do, all thanks to people like you. I'm glad I went.

Thanks Andy.

It was great to hear from an experienced person.  It was fantastic to see how much one can do to help even though one is not a first aider. I really enjoyed the course.

Thank you all for the feedback and the input.

I have some good take home points which will improve future training experiences.

 

Thank you for the kind words.

Your feedback and appreciation is what keeps me coming back to do more.

 

I hope you find the new prompt cards of value, keep them in your wallet or vehicle.
