Highway Police to Get First-Aid Training


The Myanmar Red Cross Society has offered to train police officers along the Yangon-Mandalay Highway in first aid as part of efforts to reduce the number of road deaths on the notoriously perilous road. The training will begin as soon as the proposal receives approval from the Ministry of Home Affairs.

Daw Ni Ni Moe, manager of the Myanmar Red Cross Society’s ambulance service in Nay Pyi Taw, said the goal was to “preserve and save lives before accident victims arrive at the hospital”.

He further said “We are going to train them to deal with injuries and will teach them how to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation. We will also show them the right way to carry a patient with a fracture to the ambulance, as well as how to bandage a patient.”
