Fitness Coaches First Aid Training
A first aid training for fitness coaches is an integral part of their training.
The fitness coach has a tremendous responsibility. They are in charge of their trainees throughout their sessions.In any case of emergency, they will be the first ones to respond.
Therefore, they must familiarize themselves with the medical emergencies they might encounter and learn how to quickly identify and provide the first response until a certified medical team arrives.
The training’s purpose is for the fitness coach to obtain basic First Aid knowledge needed until the arrival of senior medical personnel.
The trainee will be able to provide first aid, perform essential life support, and basic treatment in emergency trauma situations.

The trainee will also perform extensive practice. When the need arises, they will be able to identify the type of injury and provide the best treatment – CPR, bandaging, splinting, etc.
