First Aid Club, University of Nairobi

Introduction

The First Aid Club, University of Nairobi, under Faculty of Health Sciences, is a registered student association (UON/CA/AA/DOS/2/2) with a mission to equip medical students with essential life skills in health and beyond. 

We are based at the University of Nairobi, Faculty of Health Sciences, KNH campus. Our activities extend beyond the campus, as we actively participate in community service and medically related activity camps in various locations.

Who We Are

We are a dedicated group of medical students committed to becoming well-rounded professionals. Improving the students experience in the faculty is our core aim. We do this by providing platforms and services that bridge the gap between the faculty’s limitations in teaching and learning, and optimizing skills (clinical and non-clinical) among members. Further, our club aims to instill values of goodwill, civic responsibility, and community development among student members. We focus to a future where every member of the medical school at the University of Nairobi, possesses basic first aid knowledge, water and fire rescue techniques, and other medically related competencies.

 What We Do

Our primary mission is to boost confidence, promote self-awareness, and cultivate a sense of responsibility among medical students. We achieve this by providing training in essential life-saving skills. These skills not only prepare us for emergencies but also enable us to contribute significantly to society by supporting relevant environmental and health causes.
