Last Thursday on the 26th July GSPCA staff member Beckie Bailey spent the day learning about saving lives but instead of animals it was for human beings.
With 25 staff and 120 volunteers helping each week, not to mention the tens of thousands of visitors every year to the GSPCA the Shelter has to ensure we have trained first aiders in case of an incident or accident which as we all know can happen whether your at home or out and about no matter how safe the environment.
Beckie went along to Les Cotils for her training in Emergency First Aid at Work with St John Training Services Guernsey.
Beckie Bailey GSPCA Animal Care Assistant said “I had a wonderful time last week learning first aid for humans with St John Training Services Guernsey.”
“The last first aid training I had other than for animals was quite simple when I was in school.”
“It was a great day and I would recommend any wanting to learn first aid to go along.”
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager “It’s fantastic to hear how much Beckie enjoyed her first aid training last week.”
“We have a number of the team trained in human first aid and Lorna and I had our re-fresher training earlier this year with St John Training Services Guernsey.”
“We run dog and cat first aid courses at the GSPCA which has some similarities and the next dog first aid course is in November.”
