Is Lifesaving First Aid course the same as EA1?
The Basic First Aid course (or EA1) and the Lifesaving First Aid course are two different courses. The Basic First Aid course always includes lifesaving first aid as well.
All first aid courses always cover CPR, unconsciousness, bleeding, and choking, even in the 4 h Lifesaving First Aid course. In addition, seizures and/or wounds are also covered in the 6 h Lifesaving First Aid course. The 8 h Lifesaving First Aid course covers both seizures and wounds.
The Basic First Aid course is the most comprehensive of the common first aid courses and in addition to these subjects, burns, joint injuries, fractures, intoxication, and traffic accidents are also thoroughly covered in the course.

”The content of the course was well-structured, and the remote part is also engaging. Camilla is an excellent and inspiring instructor.”
