Posted By Descarte Is this for an event? As there are standards set out in "A guide to organising safe events" Page 7 First Aid • The first aid provision needs to be suitable for the number of people expected to attend and for the type of event. • Make sure that the basic services for first aid are always available. At smaller events, i.e., indoor markets/jumble sales, etc, a qualified first aider should be present and an area suitable for first aid treatment, including a supply of water, be available. • A voluntary first aid society can be asked to provide a First Aid Post, staffed by qualified first-aiders. The following gives a guide to the minimum provisions : Number of people attending Number of first aiders Number of first aid posts Ambulances 500 - 2 - 1 - 3,000 - 6 - 1 - 1 5,000 - 8 - 1 - 1 10,000 - 13 - 2 - 2 Further advice can be found in the "Guide to Health, Safety and Welfare at Pop Concerts and Similar Events"
