on field trips cannot be completely covered by a first aid kit. The primary need is for trained first aiders who can manage the immediate needs of the casualty and arrange facilities for obtaining prompt evacuation to medical care. In remote areas 24 hour communications facilities from base camp or vehicle are advisable. The contents of basic vehicle first aid kits are given in Appendix 1 for size C kits. All vehicles must be fitted with at least this minimum kit. 8. RESEARCH LABORATORIES, CLINICS & WORKSHOPS, ETC Clinics, laboratories, workshops and other areas with particular first aid needs arising out of specific work or student activities are responsible for meeting these additional first aid needs and cannot rely on the basic first aid service of Nominated First Aid Officers appointed in the building. The Faculty/School/Department concerned is responsible for all arrangements where first aid skills are a job requirement. The NFAO role supported by WHS Services is voluntary. An OHS risk assessment must be conducted for all potentially hazardous activities, including research projects. Risks must be controlled to prevent injury and illness as far as practical. However, in some situations there may still be the potential for a serious risk to health to arise or there may be predictable adverse health reactions that can be minimised by prompt first aid specific to that situation. In these cases specific planned first aid responses will be required beyond the standard first aid service available in the building from volunteer NFAOs. Examples
