Instructors of the Poltava regional organization of the Ukrainian Red Cross Society (URCS) conducted a first aid training for the National Police officers.

"They [police officers] were informed about the algorithm of first aid, [they] saw cardiopulmonary resuscitation technique, first aid for injuries, wounds, bleeding and other emergency conditions. Everyone practiced skills on mannequins or using improvised means," the URCS said on Facebook on Monday.

The Ukrainian Red Cross emphasized that the new knowledge will help police representatives to navigate in a difficult situation and save health or life of a person.

The training participants received international certificates recognized in more than 190 countries worldwide.
