On 11th and 12th May 2024 in Alalubosa community, Kwara state and Beere community, Oyo state, our NGO conducted a First Aid Outreach program, aimed at equipping rural community dwellers with essential first aid skills and practices. Our team of trained facilitators engaged with 20 participants each, providing them with the knowledge and tools to respond to medical emergencies.
Building Resilient Communities
Rural communities often face challenges in accessing medical care, making first aid skills crucial for saving lives. Our outreach program aimed to:
- Educate participants on basic first aid techniques
- Demonstrate proper wound care and bleeding control
- Teach cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and choking relief
- Emphasize the importance of timely medical intervention
Mini First Aid Kit Distribution
We distributed mini first aid kits to each participant, containing:
- Bandages and band-aids
- Antiseptic wipes and spray
- Gauze pads and rolls
- Cotton wool
- Scissors
- Methylated Spirit
Practical Sessions
Our facilitators used interactive methods, including:
- Hands-on demonstrations
- Group practices
- Q&A sessions
- Real-life scenario simulations
Moving Forward
Our First Aid Outreach program is part of our ongoing commitment to building resilient communities. We'll continue to:
- Collaborate with community leaders and healthcare providers

- Advocate for improved access to medical care
