Loveworks
First Aid
Not all first aid is the same.
It's
vitally important that first aid services meet the particular needs of partying
people at their events. Loveworks makes every effort to keep abreast
of current issues affecting safety, substance abuse, crowd syndrome and other
event safety and first aid issues. Our first aid service is constantly
updating it's approach, assessment, treatment and procedures accordingly.
It's also important that young people feel
comfortable in seeking first aid assistance, or they may be taking grave
risks with their health or even their life. Loveworks First Aid's friendly uniforms,
their gentle approach and their confidentiality make our first aid service
particularly user-friendly and non-threatening. We have initiated many
adjuncts to our service to enhance the safety, care, comfort and support of
patrons.
LoveSavers, our
search and rescue teams, wander
the event, particularly the "hot spots" (crowded dance floors, dark areas,
toilets and so on), looking for patrons in distress. They are carefully briefed on matters of protocol, and will
generally refer any worrying issues to their head of first aid rather than
calling in security. They carry small first aid kits for little problems that can
be easily treated on site, which can take a tremendous load off
overworked first aid stations, allowing them to focus on the more serious
problems at hand. Patrons are happy because they don't have to wait in
long lines for minor issues requiring simple treatment, such as a bandaid or
headache tablet.
UniMed First Aid
can
supply the first aid component of Loveworks. They are a dynamic volunteer
First Aid unit based in Sydney.
Their service is excellent. They are professional, highly qualified and well-equipped.
Their image and approach to the public are relaxed, friendly, open-minded and
non-judgmental.
Unimed personnel support
and enjoy working with natural therapies. Loveworks and
UniMed have enjoyed a strong
professional relationship for the last four years. We also work
closely with St Johns Ambulance at some events.
