Wilderness first aiders at the ready

We've done lots of learning, lots of practical scenarios and this evening, we passed our group practical assessment, hurrah!

The 7 of us came across 3 victims of a climbing accident, one with a broken shin (protruding shin bone, very nice) and internal abdominal bleeding; one with cuts and grazes; and one unconscious with a suspected spinal injury. It was quite intense and the fake wounds were good! We got them all as comfy as possible and treated what we could, then waited for mountain rescue to evacuate them.

Tomorrow, we have our exam and then we're done. It has been pretty full on, I'm knackered! After the exam tomorrow, I have to spend my afternoon prepping for the ride... oooooh!
