Emergency First Aid


St John’s Ambulance member Kate White was the guest speaker at the latest weekly meeting of the Rotary Club of Hucknall.  With the assistance of Rotarians Richard White (Kate’s father) and Ivan Manning, Kate demonstrated the latest procedures and techniques in giving emergency aid.  With some good-natured banter flying around the room, Richard gamely offered to be the injured party as Kate explained what to do in an emergency and how to place someone into the recovery position.

I was then ‘volunteered’ to demonstrate the Recovery position and followed the instructions given to me by members (to show whether or not they were listening).

Kate and Ivan then demonstrated how to give CPR using the Little Annie mannequin doll.
