This past June, Project South hosted a 2-day Community Medic Training, and it was a powerful step toward building the skills our communities need to care for one another in times of crisis.

📸 Swipe through to check out some photos from the training! Some of the biggest takeaways for attendees: 🩺 1. Focusing on patient assessment. Learning how to quickly evaluate a person's condition and respond to their most immediate needs. 🏥 2. Building emergency community clinics. Exploring how our mutual-aid spaces can be safely transformed into fully operational emergency response clinics when access to traditional healthcare is limited. 🩹 3. Creating intentional first aid and trauma kits. Understanding what supplies and medications are essential and how to improvise with everyday items when resources are scarce. Deep gratitude to the organizers, trainers, and everyone who showed up ready to learn! At Project South we know that learning together is one way we grow our power, and every new skill strengthens our collective ability to keep each other safe. #WeKeepUsSafe #MutualAid #CommunityMedics #SkillUp #FirstResponse #ProjectSouth
