Did you know you can now download first aid advice in mp3 format to store on your iPod (or any mp3) player? They are royalty free and have been professionally recorded so they will always be crystal clear whenever you need them.
They cover all the situations where giving the correct first aid may mean the difference between life and death.
All the advice provided is up to date and complies with Resuscitation Council guidelines. Of course, we realise that everyone hopes that they are never confronted with these situations. But unfortunately, the facts are otherwise. What is more, the chances are the victim will be somebody close to you.
