About Us

In everyday life, we encounter many accidents/incidents that endanger human life. "Correct and effective intervention" is very important at the time of the accident/incident. In accidents or injuries where the vital functions of the victim have stopped or are about to stop, it is vital to initiate first aid quickly and effectively.

First Aid : In any accident or life-threatening situation, until the help of paramedics is provided, in order to save life or prevent the situation from getting worse, it is the non-medical applications made with the existing tools and equipment without seeking medical equipment at the scene.
