Boy Scouts being taught first aid By Ken Lusk The News ° The local Terrace Bay Boy Scouts learned many invaluable lessons on Jan. 18 with the help of Dave Schinbein and his 'vic- tims". Schinbein, from the McGausland Hospital Ambulance Service, brought with him his knowledge of first aid and a cou- ple of grisly-looking victims to use as examples. That night the scouts earned their bronze level badge; they are reaching to get their First Aid Achievement badges and a St. John Ambulance -- Senior Certificate. This will require sev- eral sessions and tests. There are three levels of train- ing; bronze, silver and gold. The boys have to get 70 per cent on the third stage to get their certifi- cation. The nine scouts are basically learning how to handle bone frac- tures, bleeding wounds, how to use splints, how the body is made, how it works and the dan- ger of infection. They learned the meaning of first aid, how to apply direct pres- sure to a wound and the different types of wounds that there are. Scout leaders Ken Benoit and Moe Stark are giving the kids this training because they want the scouts to be qualified and have the expertise to handle these injuries if they are on canoe trip or any type oftrip. . They will have to know about artificial respiration, burns, the transportation of. injured people, and how to care for the casualty. Benoit said the boys are learn- ing all this by using problem- solving situations.
