NLA BRONZE STAR WEEKLY ASSESSMENT PROGRAMME

For members of Lane 4 Kingfishers Life Saving group:


Please remember to bring leggings and a T Shirt for the 400m Survival Swim on Friday 12th April.


We will be beginning final assessments in the various elements of the Bronze Star Award from next week, starting with CPR Adult and Child, and the wading rescue. 


Please make sure that you read up on these in your Candidate Manual P124-8 (CPR) and P90 (Wading Rescue). 


The Theory section to revise is Section 5 CPR. Use your Bank of Questions to help you to prepare. 


There are useful resources here on our website if you get stuck. 


You are all working so well! 


Thank you for all your efforts! 


Just keep it going now!

Armthorpe Kingfishers Life Saving Club: After Care: Worksheet

There are no resources for this worksheet - except the overview of Thomas’s whiteboard activity attached to this worksheet. And your own knowledge and understanding. Just have a go!

2. Which Emergency Services might be needed in addition to the immediate after care provided by you?

3. What sort of information might you need from the casualty, to pass on to the Emergency Services?


4. What characteristics of the casualty might cause you concerns for your own safety?

Eg have they been drinking alcohol?


5. A casualty might have obvious disabilities - eg have had part of their arm or leg amputated - such disabilities are easy to spot/recognise. What sorts of disabilities might be “hidden” - but possibly really important in informing you about how you might provide your casualty with after care? 


6. What barriers might prevent you from understanding what the casualty is trying to tell you?


7. Is there any information that you have not yet provided in any of your answers, which may be important information for the Emergency Services to know?


8. Thinking of the Emergency Action Model (EAM) - what actions might you take and what questions might you ask, once you have rescued the casualty?


Actions:

Questions:

9. When might you need to put a casualty in the recovery position?


10. What might worry you about performing CPR on a casualty? 


11. What sorts of injuries/conditions might a casualty have experienced during the incident? 

 

12. Explain how the “what3words” app works and how it might be useful to you when dealing with an emergency service.
