This is more detailed than Level 1, Persons must be in possession of a valid First aid level 1 certificate to enroll for this course, the option of doing level 1 & 2 combined as one course is available (you do not need a valid certificate if you do the combined course).

In first aid level 2 we review the first aid level 1 topics and start looking at additional topics such as medical conditions (epilepsy, diabetes etc) we also discuss poisoning, spinal injuries, anatomy and physiology, etc. We also cover insect, scorpion and snake bites which is great for field guides ( Our courses are recognized by FGASA and SWIMSA)

I recommend that you look at the topics covered in first aid level 3 if you enjoy first aid and have done a first aid level 2 course, we cover more topics in depth such as drowning, emergency child birth, more medical conditions, HIV, etc.
