You should do a FAW course. I did one a few years back and we spent a lot of time on protecting ourselves against accusations of sexual misconduct, sexual assault and racism. We were told that if a male first aider needed to treat a woman, he should have a female chaperone present at all times. He should carefully and clearly explain to to the female patient all that he proposed doing and why, and should only proceed with her informed consent. If she was unconscious or otherwise unable to communicate, the male first aider should explain everything to the chaperone and only proceed if she was comfortable. We should keep everything in plain sight at all times and minimise body contact. When I asked what a male first aider should do in the circumstances specific to my office - where we had one woman and 25-plus men - I was told it would be best to either find a female passer by or await the arrival of the ambulance! We were then told that in the case of Muslim women, our employers should be looking to have a Muslim woman as a first aider to treat them. The trainer told to me not to be difficult when I asked what we should do if we only had one Muslim woman first aider and she was the person needing first aid. He particularly didn't like it when I pointed out the Koran specifically makes exceptions to most of its strictures if it is a matter of life or death. The trainer just about had a fit when another bloke on the course said he worked in the fashion industry and had twice needed to undo corsets when models fainted. Undoing or loosening underwear is a definite no-no! I passed the course, but was left feeling it was totally useless in a first aid sense. These strictures, on top of many others, made rendering first aid difficult or even impossible in many circumstances. On top of that, so much time was spent on legalese that people doing the course had very little time doing hands-on practice of actual first aid skills.
