The Student Activities Club at the Faculty of Science and Arts in Dhahran Al-Janub participated in organizing a developmental course in collaboration with the Red Crescent Administration. The course was titled "Basic First Aid" and took place on Tuesday, 16 / 7 / 1444H, in the theater of the female students' section at the Dhahran Al-Janoub campus, from 10 am to 12 pm.

The course was presented by a specialized team from the Red Crescent Administration and aimed to empower the participants with basic first aid skills and acquaint them with the procedures for handling various emergency situations that require immediate and rapid response until medical personnel arrive. Training in first aid techniques is not only aimed at reducing the likelihood of complications or permanent disability for the injured but can also be a lifesaving measure.

The course covered boosting confidence in dealing with various situations and providing first aid for burns, fractures, bleeding, shortness of breath, heart attacks, and many other sudden injuries. This enhances the efficiency of the first aider and provides psychological and moral support to the injured.
