Why hire first responders or sports therapists for a sports event?
Le 2021-07-18
It is strongly recommended that you hire first responders when you organize a sporting event so that you can respond quickly to the injured in the event of an accident. It is also essential to seek the services of qualified professionals who have the necessary equipment. Let’s do a check in.
A first responder is a person authorized to intervene with individuals in a vital emergency. This is a healthcare professional who has completed 40 hours of training and is accredited to perform his or her duties. They are able to easily and correctly handle medical equipment and to administer the necessary drugs when needed.
Many accidents such as strains, fractures, shortness of breath or more or less serious injuries due to falls can occur during a sporting event. In the most extreme cases, some players can even suffer from concussion.
The intervention of first responders or qualified sports therapists is therefore essential so that the injured receive the necessary care on time. In this way, they can quickly resume games or competition or be transported to hospital in the best conditions. In the latter situation, the presence of professionals considerably increases the victim’s chances of survival.
