What sort of level do they want them to get up to.

And also what sort of incidents are they expected to deal with?

Now all the sharp items have been removed

The only wounds they should have to sort out are.

Paper cuts
Fire axe wounds
Pen puncher wounds
cut finger when the bloody cutlery snaps on you and you stab yourself.

All the other stuff is first air and unless you have some serious hardware on board and lots of reacurring training. There is not alot you can do apart from a divert very quickly. Apart from give them an asprin but thats illeagal so the biggest thing for helping the punters out with strokes heart attacks etc is waft them with a safety card after puting them in the recovery position if there is enough room. Even then you will have to put them into a seat for landing.

I hope to god we don't have to start employing combat medics like offshore had to. Mind you most a ugly mean looking buggas so it might also help solve cabin problems as well.
