Most sensible people have access to a First Aid
Kit...but do they know how to use it?
First Aid is far more than just having a kit in
your boat.
What would you do if you attended a boating accident
and found people wading in the water.
Some are bleeding and all have been in the water
for several hours?
Attending a First Aid course can answer these questions.
On this page BTS will cover the basic First Aid
procedures for some of the more common
situations and emergencies that the angler may
be faced with.
PLEASE NOTE
Having access to a First Aid
Kit is NO substitute for the knowledge gained in attending
a First Aid course. Please inquire in your local area about these life
saving courses.
