First Aid Competition
Writeup By: CPL Foo Chek Jun



First Aid Competition ( FAC) 2008 was an ingenious success and an accrued accomplishment to be reckoned with. This year was evidently witnessed as an assertively competitive one with rife participation from various schools, comprising of links and cadets alike. Battling it out with wits on first aid in the theory segment and remonstrating our aptitudes and repose composures under the different scenarios to handle the 'casualties' in the practical segment, it would definitely be the glowing eminence bestowed on the emerging winners, either in district levels or in other aspects.

It was a comprehensible honour for Huayi Red Cross as yet again, we were gratified to clinch the opportunity as a participant in the tantalizing competition. Having braced ourselves beforehand with mock scenarios and drilled implementations of designated timeframes, we were frazzled but not intimidated. It was a quivering desire to put out skills down to vagary and wield.

Representing our unit, Corporal. Guo Yu Jun, Corporal. Tan Si Ying, Corporal. Tan Jia Min and last but not least Corporal. Chua Yee San were imposed with this hefty responsibility to which they were acclined to with esteem and renunciations of kudos. Huayi Red Cross's entire unit were enshroulded with the sense of unity and warmth and came to support our four musketeers.

Finally, the day of recognition had dawned on us. Arrant spasms of anxiety collated were inadequate to overwhelm a pliably resolute and affirmative spirit to gain the last honours for the unit. The competition adhered without tumult. Our four representatives though mounted with apprehensibly gruelling questions, got to grips with them tactfully. As the theory segment advanced, it was proclivity as they grasped a more profound knowledge of first aid and to proffer remarkable answers, all made possible with a determined quintessence.


Next up, the practical segment. Huayi's cadets had to handle a semi-conscious 'casualty' with injuries consisting of a foreign object in one hand and another compounded with burns and blisters. They too were moollified when nerve-wracking queries hurled by the judges surfaced. Propped with sustainable first aid skills and marvellous reassuredness, out cadets overcame the precipitated scenario with sanctimonious.

As every single individual sat rhetorically in the hall for the befalling results, breaths were held as one. Sagacious ones were poised, the others engaged in discussions. Hail and behold, it was time to announce! When the emcee spouted on west district, the steadfast atmoshphere hung in mid-air. Huayi Red Cross emerged as the second runner-up! It was a moment of gratitude and relief. The arduous trainings had paid off!
Hereby, congratulations to the FAC team for coming in second runner-up! All well had ended well. Our four representatives had laudatorily done the unit proud. With felicitations and well-reserved applauses, we can certainly be awaiting more good news along our paths! Huayi Red Cross all the way! (:
