Health and safety is a continuing awareness program in the Department of Engineering. For this semester, Fall 2018, the Health and Safety Committee organized the First Aid Skills awareness on November 6, 2018 at the ICT Main Hall.

The resource speaker is Dr. Kaflawi Ali Kaflawi, a general medicine practitioner at Wadi Al Rafiddain International Clinic.

Dr. Kaflawi talked about the basic steps on giving first aid treatment to persons in various emergency situations like - cardiac arrest, burns, nose bleeding and choking. Interestingly, he showed videos to clearly demonstrate how to do a cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CPR).

This program also serves as a refresher of their first aid skills. The Department of Engineering highly commends the Health and Safety Committee co-chaired by Mr. Vicknesh for organizing such valuable and very informative activity.
