During the recruitment, volunteers are trained in different topics such as how to use an ambulance stretcher, a scoop stretcher, a spinal board, cervical collars, radio procedures, chain communication, different types of bandages and much more. Following the initial recruitment training, volunteers join more specialised training such as fire fighting, water rescue and high angle.
