In that refresher program, Sajan Neupane told us about the activities he did after getting the training interestingly. He told us that when his sister-in-law got choked while having her food, he helped her to take that bone out by the technique taught by the training from Rescue Network Nepal. He told that he was quiet benefitted with this training and if he was not there on time, he would have probably lost her. He had also learnt how to lift a heavy person in the training and in the same way; he lifted a heavy person and aided him. He had done many dressings and also made good utilization of all first aid tools given by Rescue Network Nepal and helped many people
One of the participants named Sara Shrestha had also taken the training and she had come for refresher program. Although she was less educated, she was happy to get the training. She learnt how to help people when they are faint. She liked women's health and nutrition classes most in our training. Moreover, she wants to learn more of it and help women in her village and church.
She was also participating in our refresher program. From the very beginning, she wanted to participate in helping people in need. Indeed, she had helped people in different accidents by lifting them up from the place of accident. However, after getting this first aid training, she had helped more than 150 people by doing dressing to their wounds. Due to lack of medicine, she was unable to provide better services and she wished to get support from Rescue Network Nepal.
I got to see and learn first aid through the trainings provided by Rescue Network Nepal. Before this training, I had an accident and my leg was fractured. Lots of people came to see but none helped me. I got to learn that there are proper techniques to lift an injured person. If I had learned this training before, I could have helped myself; but now I have helped lots of people who got injured in accidents.
I got the training in Jana Bikash Adharbhut School on 12th-13th April, 2018. I am the Health Assistant but unlike the teaching method in my studies, I enjoyed the training provided by Rescue Network Nepal. It was not just basic first aid training but it included anatomy, physiology, practical sessions and many more health tips and information. I liked the teaching techniques and also the qualified trainers who taught us so well.
