First Aid

---

Basic and Advanced First Aid Training in mine action is essential for ensuring the safety and survival of personnel operating in hazardous environments contaminated by landmines and explosive remnants of war (ERW). Basic First Aid Training equips deminers, survey teams, and support staff with the skills to manage common injuries, perform CPR, control bleeding, and stabilize casualties until professional medical help is available. Advanced First Aid Training builds on these foundations, preparing individuals to respond to more complex trauma scenarios, including blast injuries, amputations, and airway management—critical in the event of accidents during clearance operations. These trainings are tailored to the realities of remote and high-risk field conditions, often emphasizing rapid response, improvisation, and evacuation procedures. 

By enhancing on-site medical preparedness, Basic and Advanced First Aid Training significantly contribute to saving lives and minimizing the impact of accidents in mine action operations.
