Week 1 is over

And week 1 comes to an end. In a week we have gone from complete
newbies to ambulance people who possess a tiny bit of clue. The
progress we have made as a group is stupendous. Today we were all
assessed to check our progress on the ILS training. No significant
problems were found with any of us.

Next week we have a day of Manual Handling practical - a day of
carting people and dummies up and down stairs, in and out of the
ambulance. Should be good.

The rest of the week will be taken up with Respiratory System Theory.
There will be further practicals based around what we are learning so
we will start to learn exactly why we are doing the things we have
done all week.
