QUETTA: A function marking the World First Aid Day has been arranged by the Pakistan Red Crescent Society (PRCS) Balochistan today (Monday) at the Balochistan Boy Scouts Association’s headquarters here.
It may be mentioned here that the World First Aid Day 2015 was observed on (Sunday) in the country and the world. This year, the main theme of the First Aid Day is “First aid and ageing population.â€
Nevertheless, it is a time to promote first aid knowledge and skills around the globe, to bring about the change we know is needed to enhance, expand and improve first aid training worldwide as an act of humanitarian empowerment and as a key component of a wider resilience approach.
The idea is to build a positive image of ageing and recognize older people as an important resource for society.
