53rd Annual First Aid and Home Nursing Competition

St John Ambulance of SMK St Michael, Ipoh have sent two teams - The Ambulance Adult (A/A 5) and Ambulance Cadet (A/C 12) to participate in this competition.

The performance of the adult team was good and surprising. Unfortunately, other teams in and around Perak were better and thus, zero trophies for their footdrill. The adult team's short case and long case was satisfactory. Seriously, their performance is way better than area-level competition. From what I observed, they have the confidence to win and at last, bronze for both their short and long cases.
Cadet team was not so disappointing after all. Their leader, Donivald Tham raise the impression of their team with his voice in their footdrill session. A stunning Silver was awarded for their footdrill and uniform checking. Short case was quite good, coordination and teamwork surpass most of the teams.

The overall result for SMI is as below:
A/A 5 :-
Short Case - Bronze
Long Case - Bronze
Highest Individual - Fong Teik Sum - Bronze
Highest Individual - Cham Swee Wen - Silver

A/C 12 :-
Footdrill and Uniform Checking - Silver
Short Case - Bronze
Long Case - Bronze
Highest Individual - Donivald Tham Kam Loy - Silver

Since there will be only 1 team selected to enter the national-level competition in KL, both Adult and Cadet Teams did not make it. It was not because they are weak or unable to perform well, but mainly due to the more-experience teams who were slightly better than them. Congratulations and well done to both teams!
