Today I saw someone had some sort of attack in the middle of the street, no one knew what to do and everyone was staring, incluiding me. I dont want to feel useless again in a situation like that so i decided to do a first aid course, i saw that red course has some courses partially online but they are quite expensive for me. I also cannot find them pirated anywhere, if you know where to find the red cross or any other first aid course for free please let me know :)

I highly recommend that you consider enrolling in the physical course. The thing is, simply having theoretical knowledge is just a small part of the whole learning process. It is much more important to practice and experience how to perform resuscitation techniques. Actually feeling the process of performing chest compressions or giving mouth-to-mouth breaths will be immensely helpful in stressful situations.

Just to give you an idea, I have to retake the course every year. While the theory remains more or less the same, the key is to develop and maintain a practical understanding. It's about continually familiarizing yourself with the techniques and gaining a sense of confidence through hands-on practice.

This is the correct answer. A hands on approach is the best approach for a subject like this.
