Sport Climbing Victoria and Red Cross are working together to bring something special to the climbers in Victoria. A specialised 2-hour session will go through climbing-injury specifics in a controlled environment.
WHY: when you’re a casualty, your well-being is in the hands of your partner/s…so please consider asking them to hit “LIKE”.
COST: $20 per person, all profits will go back into the outdoor climbing community via Cliffcare.
CONTENT: it’s all about stabilising an injured climber, as best you can, while you wait for the cavalry. So, amongst other things, and with hands-on exercises, you can learn what first aid the experts would do for:
– head, neck and back injuries
– bleeding
– fractures
– unconscious climber
– and more
You do NOT get a certificate. This is about what to do, and what not to do, when things go pear-shaped at the crag.
VENUE/S: Bayside Rock, 9 Network Drive, Carrum Downs
WHEN: Wednesday 22 June, 7pm to 9pm. Additional sessions will be run if there is demand.
RSVP: Please indicate on the facebook event if you plan to attend and see you there!
