Anyone involved in sporting activities which are conducted
remotely from immediate medical support must develop self-reliance in first
aid knowledge and skills. This ensures that they are equipped to manage
first aid incidents which are bound to happen from time to time. This becomes
self evident when undertaking activity risk assessments (see Risk
Management Policy).
The Perth Bushwalkers Club Inc encourages all members,
and especially leaders to maintain their first aid qualifications and skills
by subsidising recognised training courses (see Training
and Development Policy).
