About this study
Official title: Bedre førstehjelp Med førstehjelpstrening og AMK-veiledning?
The study evaluates the effect of a first aid course on first aid skills compared to no training. The study also evaluates the effect of first-aid instructions given by emergency dispatch central over mobile phone on first aid performance to no instructions.
Half the participants will perform first aid in two scenarios prior to first aid training. Half the participants will perform first aid in two scenarios 4 to 5 months after attending a first aid course. Half the participants (overall) will receive first aid instructions by mobile phone during the scenarios.
