Our Mission Statement
Resus Rangers is targeted specifically for Primary and Secondary education, delivering First Aid lessons through the only animated First Aid programme for primary school children (Resus Rangers) and exclusive videos for secondary school children (Resus Responders).
Our Teacher-Led Resources Programmes teach First Aid in a non-threatening, fun and interactive way. In our design process we worked with several large national commercial training companies to gain information about what makes teaching primary and secondary school children different to teaching adults First Aid. We took onboard every comment they gave us to design our programmes for primary and secondary schools.
Resus Rangers: First Aid for Primary School Children
Interesting discussion was made with all the commercial training companies we interviewed, unanimously stating that adults can find First Aid an emotive subject especially when they have dealt with a First Aid incident or accident. We used this information to create an animated programme of 4 little characters who take the children through First Aid topics in a story journey format. A central theme in our Programme is empowering children to communicate confidently to create compassion. We want to lay the foundation for confident communication so that child have the higher functioning skills to overcome the fight, flight, freeze reaction in an emergency and most importantly act in a compassionate way to get help and help others.
Resus Responders: First Aid for Secondary School Children
Targeted specifically for older children, the Resus Responders are a team of four teenagers who teach their follow classmates essential First Aid skills. As the students prepare to enter adult life, it is important to equip them with skills that could be used wherever they go. The Responders teach students the importance of acting confidently during an emergency, dealing with casualties who are unconscious, seriously ill, or injured (including knife wounds). It also teaches the importance of calling 999 and staying with your casualty until help arrives, rather than running away, and career options in first response and healthcare.
Our vision is to teach all children First Aid, and our programme has been carefully considered to be inclusive of all children with all types of educational needs. We hope you will join us on our mission.
