I passed my first aid certificate on Thursday and am rightly proud. However, quite what one would have to do to fail it I can’t imagine. Pulling the head of the dummy during CPR probably, or announcing that the correct procedure for choking is bathing in boiling oil…
The exam was very simple to say the least and I didn’t even get to finish the checking of the fainted person before the invigilator moved me on to the next thing. Oh well. Anyway, I met one of two very nice people whilst on the course, including the nicest HR person I have ever met, and I hope to stay in contact with them over the 3 years that the certificate is valid for.
