Protection Civile 26

Protection Civile de la Drôme is a local emergency-aid and first-aid training organization serving the Drôme department in France. Its volunteers and reserve members support people in need, including older adults, by distributing meals during outreach operations and helping in accommodation centres. The organization also provides event first-aid services, deploying teams and equipment to set up response posts adapted to each request, including during public health crises.

Training is a central part of its work. Courses range from public first-aid instruction, such as PSC and “Gestes qui sauvent,” to professional and specialist qualifications. These include workplace first aid (SST) and refresher training, fire safety equipment training (EPI), aquatic rescue qualifications such as BNSSA, and several levels of emergency response training, including PSE1 and PSE2. It also offers courses for first-aid trainers and continuing education for relevant qualifications. Individuals can explore training, request a quote for an event first-aid post, volunteer, or support the organization. Protection Civile de la Drôme is based in Bourg-de-Péage.
