On 9th March 2010, the French Red Cross hosted the first meeting of the European task-force on "First aid and prevention training for the elderly".
Ten National Societies, as well as the European Reference Centre for First Aid Education, are represented in this group.
The overall aim of the meeting was to define the objectives of the task-force and the expected results; the work will focus on two main target groups: the elderly and the elderly caregivers and on three main themes: first aid, prevention and health.
