What I was getting at here in the UK the British Red Cross Society runs in competition to the St John Ambulance Brigade with active members doing first aid at major events, promoting first aid training, nursing assistance, etc. does the Thai Red Cross have ambulances, do they promote and train first aiders, do they provide first aid cover at major events??? 

 

 

Here in Thailand most of the major hospitals provide training, at least to companies that ask for it. Our training is provided by Bangkok hospital Phitsanulok. They send out their team (including the dummies) and conduct an all day session including CPR. We include all the staff for these visits while section first responders attend an advanced version of the training.

Hero and Pattaya police man cannot ever appear juxtaposed unless as an example of oxymoron.

Well , the Russian survived so the cop must have done something right. He wiol get his medal soon.

Actually there's many serious first aid training companies with international certifications in Thailand, some are holded by foreigners, some by Thai..
