Cupe Coy:--- Earlier this month, the Ministry of Justice, in collaboration with the American University of the Caribbean (AUC), hosted its first First Aid / Heart Saver CPR AED and Stop the Bleed training for justice personnel. The session stems from discussions Minister Tackling held with AUC representatives earlier this year, focused on strengthening the Ministry’s capacity, readiness, and service to the public.
The training was facilitated by Windward Islands Emergency Medical Services (WIEMS) and AUC students and certified trainers, with participation from customs officers, the Secretary-General, cabinet staff, Immigration officers, and representatives from several justice departments.
This initiative reflects Minister Tackling’s commitment to strengthening the justice system from within, with additional capacity-building opportunities expected as the Ministry continues prioritizing preparedness and resilience across the justice chain.
