The community is expected to be well prepared in accordance with their respective capacities, and this includes the Civil Service Police Unit (CSPU), which must be competent in providing emergency first aid. The aim of this study is to analyse the effect of emergency first aid training on the competence of CSPU in providing emergency first aid assistance in the Surakarta region.

Variables in this study were competencies in handling emergency first aid assistance including knowledge, attitude and practice. Data were collected by questionnaire and analysed using Wilcoxon signed-rank test with a p-value of 0.05.
Results: There were significant differences in scores on knowledge, attitudes, and practice in providing emergency first aid assistance, with a p-value of 0.012 for knowledge, 0.000 for attitude and 0.001 for practice, respectively.
Conclusion: Emergency first aid training is urgently needed for CSPU members that are ever directly in charge in the community in any situation. The CSPU must have the first aid competence to support its performance

The identification of female victims of domestic violence by emergency first aid health care professionals
No full textAim: This research examined the ability of health care professionals working in emergency first aid stations to identify female victims of domestic violence. Methods: The data were collected by means of a Descriptive Information Form and a Scale Form. The total population of the research consisted of a hundred health care professionals working at emergency first aid stations in Izmir (n=100). The breakdown of the study group was as follows; 60% nurses, 17% health officers, 20% obstetricians and 3% paramedics. The response rate was 100%. Results: During their professional lives 90% of the health care professionals in the study had attended a woman who had been subjected to domestic violence. From the scale used in this study it was found that the average ability of the group of health care professionals to identify female victims of domestic violence was 21.50 +/- 4.25. Of the personnel participating in this research 75% were found to have partially adequate knowledge, 15% had inadequate knowledge, and only 10% were found to have adequate knowledge to identify those women who had experienced domestic violence. Conclusions: Since a large percentage of the health care professionals in this study lacked the information to accurately identify female victims of domestic violence it is concluded that it is very important to introduce a new in-service training program on the topic of "Female victims of domestic violence"
Emergency first aid readiness in Antarctica: Australian Antarctic expeditioners’ first aid credentials and self-efficacy
No full textIntroduction: To help prevent future morbidity and mortality, this study examined Australian Antarctic expeditioners’ first aid credentials and self‐efficacy in providing emergency first aid in extreme environments. Methods: A mixed method survey assessed Australian personnel working on Antarctic stations. Volunteer participants (n = 83) provided data on first aid training, self‐confidence of first aid readiness, and first aid preparations. The Extreme Conditions First Aid Confidence Scale (EC‐FACS) was developed and validated for this study. Multivariate analyses tested associations between first aid background, demographics and EC‐FACS. Open‐ended comments were subjected to thematic analysis. Results: Over one‐third of participants did not hold current first aid certificates at expedition commencement. Factor analysis demonstrated the EC‐FACS was unidimensional, and internal consistency was high (α = 0.94), and showed first aid self‐efficacy was moderately high, but participants’ confidence decreased as first aid scenarios became more complex. Experience providing emergency first aid and level of first aid qualification were the strongest predictors of overall first aid self‐efficacy. Thematic analysis revealed expeditioners support higher first aid qualifications and want Antarctic‐specific wilderness first aid training. Conclusions: These findings revealed that many Antarctic expeditioners may not be adequately prepared for first aid emergencies and have low confidence in handling complex medical situations. Based on these findings, we recommend higher first aid qualifications and training tailored to the Antarctic context. These modest steps can help prevent unnecessary and costly morbidity and mortality for extreme‐condition expeditioners.</p
