SBSI cooperated a first aid workshop for NGO workers from different Japanese NGOs in Cambodia

September 11, 2017, SBSI cooperated a first aid workshop for NGO workers from different Japanese NGOs in Cambodia, which was hosted by JICA Cambodia Office. Mr. Ken Tsuhako who is an EMS chief at Kawasaki Fire Department, and other professional volunteers taught 24 attendees. The teachers including 2 young paramedic students from Kokushikan University taught CPR (cardio pulmonary resuscitation) on babies, children, and adults. Because there were many training equipment including the ones brought from japan, the attendees had a chance to practice for longer time than usual, which turned out to be very meaningful. Unlike in Japan, there are very few people who attended CPR and first aid lesson like this in Cambodia. Therefore some mentioned that they want other staff in their organizations who couldn’t attend that day attend next time, that they want us to have workshops on other first aid, etc.
We would like to extend our gratitude to JICA Cambodia Office and Ms. Ogawa from JICA Japan desk and Ms. Minami from FIDR who cooperated this workshop and Sunrise Japan Hospital that rented some equipment, and Mr. Ishizaki who provided the text book.
