REFACE

Greetings! The Minister of Physiks, as stated in the Bylaws, shall be the coordinator of all First Aid at events. The Minister and all deputies must have at least advanced First Aid Training. A “station” should be set up in an area clearly recognizable and accessible to the populace attending an event. All chartered subdivisions are required to have a Minister of Physiks. If no person within a subdivision is qualified, it is the responsibility of the crown/ruling noble to appoint a person to receive the appropriate training (i.e. Red Cross first aid training) to then be qualified for the position as Minister of Physiks. As Minister, you are to function as an AID to the populace who may be in need of help. You are not to treat or force anyone to accept treatment, especially medications. Over the counter medications can be available for those who wish to take them but should not be administered by the Minister. Good Samaritan laws cover those who render aid in good faith, but not those who go beyond that for which they were trained. Be smart and know when to call for help.

Yours in Service, Gryphon von Hohenheim, Imperial Physiker This manual contains extensive rewrites by Stefan Belski and could not be completed without acknowledging the help

and suggestions of Sq. Gregor mac Domnaill
