The training program in first aid of the Civil Protection body of Las Torres de Cotillas for students from 1 to 4 of the ESO has developed this week a new workshop, this time at the Monte Azahar school.
This free initiative developed by its members explains the techniques to recognize a health emergency situation and thus be able to report the situation to 112.
In these workshops, young people also learn cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) techniques and put into practice the knowledge acquired with the Civil Protection material.
