ERRVA DVD


Beyond the Call (DVD)

This DVD was produced to familiarise crews on a daily basis of the medical aid that they may have to administer in the event of an emergency offshore.

(New resuscitation protocols were introduced by the Resuscitation Council in 2005 which are not reflected in the DVD. Individuals attending first aid refresher courses will be instructed in the new guidelines. In addition they will be incorporated into ERRVA training materials in due course. First aiders should be reassured that the old protocols are neither dangerous or ineffective and until they have received updated training and feel competent in its application they may continue to work under the old protocols.)
