SAFETY STRATEGY: FIRST AID AND CPR

As an international organization, we see First Aid and CPR training as a crucial component of a comprehensive safety strategy.

CPR stands for "Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation". It is a life-saving emergency procedure performed when someone's heartbeat or breathing has stopped. CPR combines chest compressions and rescue breaths to manually pump blood and oxygen through the body, helping to keep vital organs functioning until professional medical help arrives. It is commonly used in cases of cardiac arrest, drowning, or suffocation. First Aid refers to the immediate care given to a person who has been injured or is suddenly ill before professional medical help can be provided. The primary aim of first aid is to stabilize the individual, prevent the condition from worsening, and promote recovery.

Operating across diverse regions and environments, organizations face unique challenges where access to emergency services may vary greatly. Equipping staff with the skills to provide immediate care in the event of accidents, medical emergencies, or natural disasters ensures that employees are better prepared to handle unexpected crises, regardless of location.

Moreover, first aid and CPR training promotes a global culture of responsibility, safety, and collaboration. It empowers teams to act swiftly, reduces response times in critical situations, and can significantly minimize the risk of long-term injury or fatality. In international contexts, where staff may be stationed in remote or high-risk areas, such training is not just an organizational asset but a moral obligation to safeguard the well-being of employees.

Why does ICREN prioritize first aid and CPR training? we do this because, we value human life and are committed to providing a safe and secured working environment for our teams across the globe.
