Abstract

Being a paramedic is a challenging job, but it is also one of the most rewarding. Paramedics have the ability to save lives and make a real difference in their community. In this session, Paramedics will provide you with a tour of the simulation ambulance from Charles Sturt University. Participants may even have the opportunity to see their own heart rhythm and learn how to read and interpret an electrocardiogram (ECG). Having first aid knowledge is a must-have tool for life’s unexpected challenges. You will also have the chance to practice CPR, use a defibrillator, and test your bandaging and wound-dressing skills.
