Why learn First Aid..? |
|
|
|
Why Learn First Aid..? The first half of the hour from the time of an accident or
Sudden ailment is crucial to the victim. A first Aider close at hand will provide
First Aid to the victim and dispatch him/her for expert medical attention. It's
very often happens that the action of the First Aider will save the victim from
death or at the least prevent aggravating his condition which allows fast recovery.
By learning First Aid you may save family members, a child in school ,a colleague
in the work place or even a stranger on the road. Learn First Aid and be a skilled
First Aider.First Aid is thought by skilled Trainers. Training consist of theory
and practice of First Aid to handle a casualty until he/she is given care by medical
personnel. Available Courses>> |

Nursing
|
|
|
The Nursing was closely tied to that of the women only nursing divisions of the Brigade
and they were the “home” of the Nursing program. The Nursing Officer of a division
had the responsibility of teaching a course on a regular basis to both new and re-certifying
members. St John ambulance provides the professional nursing services to the Nation including Home Nursing facilties.

Child Protection Programme |
|
|
According to a survey which has done by St.John Ambulance in year 2007, it found
that the numbers of child abuse issues are higher in Rajanganaya Division which
is geographically located in Anuradhapura district. As a result of that survey St.John Ambulance Sri Lanka decided to conduct
a kind of awareness programme to build up a team whom can serve their people from
this cruel disaster under youth development programme of St.John Ambulance. Therefore
we have launched a child abuse awareness programme for village leaders by covering
all Rajanganaya area. Mainly Rajanganaya division contains 21 Grama Niladhari divisions.
We planned to launch our awareness programme by dividing above 21 divisions in to
04 groups. For our each group 60 beneficiaries from each division were included.
The main objectives of this programme are,
-
Make public more aware about the intuitions which work
closely with child related abuses. These institutions are District Child Development
Committee, Human Rights Commission, Women and children desk at Police & Probation
Department of Anuradhapura district.
-
Make beneficiaries educate on subject areas such as child
leadership, child related laws, human rights, labour laws, aspect of marriage life
and issues, situation of a abused child etc.
-
Conduct a primary health care programme for above beneficiaries
to recover their selves from day to day accidents which they are face in their village
life.
After finishing this programme
our main target is to use the same group as the key target group to convey the knowledge
which they gained through this programme to other people whom live in their area.
Also if we hope to carry out this kind of programmes in near future in other more needy
districts in Sri Lanka. St.John Ambulance is very proud to say that we had an opportunity to support for a major issue which exists in our country.
