As always, if you want to take a compulsory driving course, it’s best to go to a driving school you can trust!

At L’auto-école Lémanique, our commitment is to promote road safety and make our students aware of the importance of good driving practices, respect and accident prevention.

Beyond purely theoretical training, we do our utmost to achieve these objectives by offering comprehensive first aid courses. We take care to organize interactive and participative courses, offering students a dynamic learning experience.

First aid courses take place in our air-conditioned premises at 6 rue de Lyon, Geneva 1201.
Contact us to find out about future availability, and book the first aid course that suits your schedule!

The first aid course is usually spread over 2 days, with a total of 10 hours of instruction.
The advantage of dividing the course into two parts is that you can better assimilate the knowledge.
During these two days, you will have both theoretical and practical sessions, combining interactivity and videos for a complete learning experience.
The addition of interactive elements and videos aims to make the first aid course more engaging and dynamic.

This pedagogical approach combines different learning aids to suit different learner styles and preferences, while reinforcing knowledge retention and confidence in the application of first aid techniques.
With our certified instructors on hand to guide you, you can ask any questions you may have to ensure that you fully understand all the issues involved in lifesaving techniques.

The first aid course, run by Lémanique Driving School, is designed to teach you essential first aid skills.
If you take a closer look at the first aid course syllabus, you can identify several major pillars of this learning process.
Taking safety measures in the event of an accident
You will learn how to secure the scene of an accident to avoid any further danger to yourself and others present.

It’s the first thing you do when you arrive at the scene of an accident. The aim is to avoid over-accidents.
Know your rights and duties as a citizen
You will understand your responsibilities as a citizen and the legal obligations involved in providing first aid.
Learn how to alert the emergency services
You will know how to alert the emergency services effectively and provide them with all the necessary information.
For example, you will be trained to assess the condition of an injured person quickly and effectively using the ABCD method (Airway, Breathing, Circulation, Disability).

This is the key information you need to pass on to the emergency services, so that they can tell you what to do by the time they arrive on the scene.
Mastering emergency intervention
During this 10-hour training course at the Lémanique Driving School, you will learn how to place an unconscious person in a lateral position of safety, and you will be trained in cardiac massage techniques and the use of a defibrillator.

In the case of a bleeding injury, you will also learn how to react and apply a pressure dressing.
You will also be able to react to first-, second- and third-degree burns. To ensure effective communication with emergency services, you will learn how to identify and treat the different types of burns, according to their severity.
Adopting appropriate behavior in traffic
Finally, you will develop an understanding of the safe behavior to adopt as a driver on the road, putting safety at the heart of your actions.

In short, the first aid course aims to train you in the vital gestures and safety measures needed to react effectively in the event of an accident, both on the road and in everyday life.
This training will enable you to become a responsible driver, well prepared to deal with possible emergency situations.
Good to know:
The knowledge acquired during the first aid course is not only useful on the road. They can also save lives in everyday life, in the event of a medical emergency.

The First Aid course, also known as the Samaritan course, is an essential step for young people wishing to obtain their driving license (car, motorcycle, scooter…).

The aim of this course is to teach you the first-aid procedures to follow in the event of an accident.
You will learn how to react appropriately in emergency situations, while waiting for professional help to arrive.
At the end of this course, you will receive a first-aid certificate.
This certificate will enable you to register for the theory test for your driving license. It is valid for 6 years, and is recognized by all automotive suppliers.

This theoretical training is essential, as it will give you the skills you need to be a responsible and responsive driver in an emergency.
By taking this course, you’ll be better prepared to deal with any dangerous situations on the road, and to provide the necessary assistance to other road users.
