The most time I have to jump into the pool to save someone was during a fitness test for Bronze med students. Peggy, Me, Pei Ting were on duty and we went in a total of around 10 times.....lol
Other than that, there the occasional KO-K renang Help Help panic case......But then again, nothing serious lar....
Before pool renovations we tended to more cuts and bleeding cases (tiles that time were so broken in the pool I get cut once every semester)

ps: SJ, wat u specific wat is the 3 Rs?? Reduce, Reuse, Recycle??? :P
The others have a point you know, what are the 3R's? I have never heard of that in my three years in the corps. Like Min Fey said, unless you enlighten us on what the 3R's are, you better be prepared to be made fun of.

haha, mistake is not forgiven... u c the DNA polymerase, pair so many bases without mistake lo, properly 1 mistake in a billion pairing le... sumor oso very fast lo... haha...maybe u r DNA polymerase 4, error-prone...wakakakaka...tmr microbial genetics!!!
LG must be SERIOUSLY TOTALLY EXTRA alert on... 1. Bronze Med fitness test / pool trial... 2. Ko-K...every single session...
glad that after renovation...there were not much blood seen at the pool... but still that day i saw one girl got cut on her leg...
so...better if LGs know what to do in such cases... maybe can get some first-aid guideline on how to treat clean cut wound from the internet... verify with some nurses at our Pusat Kesihatan... distribute to the members and brief them during GM...
lastly...as LG...NEVER assume the pool is a safe place...
