Guidelines for Training and Examination Arrangements (effective on 1 June 2026)
Hong Kong St John Ambulance Association has arranged regular cleaning and disinfection of all classrooms and training equipment to maintain a hygienic environment.
All participants of courses and examinations are required to observe the following guidelines:
Classrooms / Examination Premises
1 Personal Hygiene: Individuals with respiratory symptoms (e.g., coughing, shortness of breath) are advised to bring and wear a surgical mask properly while on the premises.
2 Health Reporting: If you feel unwell during a lesson or examination, please inform the lecturer/instructor or invigilator immediately.
3 Hand Hygiene for Practical: Before practical sessions or examinations, participants must sanitize their hands with 70-80% alcohol-based hand rub as directed and follow all onsite hygiene protocols.
Other Arrangements
4 Rescue Breath Procedure: candidates are required to perform "mouth-to-mouth resuscitation" during both CPR practical sessions and examinations. To ensure personal hygiene, the use of a face shield is mandatory throughout. Candidates are requested to bring their own face shields for practical classes, while the Association will provide one complimentary face shield to each candidate during the examination.
5 Waste Disposal: All used masks and gloves must be disposed of in the lidded rubbish bins provided.
