Punainen Risti Ensiapu
Punainen Risti Ensiapu (Finnish Red Cross First Aid) is part of the preparedness and response framework of the Finnish Red Cross and the whole country. We train first-aiders with the know-how and courage to act in unexpected first aid situations.
Our goal is to have people who can administer first aid in every home and at every workplace.
Punainen Risti Ensiapu began its operations on 1 September 2017. The company is wholly owned by the Finnish Red Cross, and our activities are governed by the principles of the Red Cross, a code of ethics and the desire to protect life.
The proceeds from the sales of first aid courses, first aid products and safety products go towards the domestic preparedness of the Red Cross for the benefit of all of us living in Finland. By participating in first aid training organised by the Red Cross, you are part of the chain of aid.
