First Responder Medical Training
Description:
Give Police and Firefighters medical training in order to help save lives.
Since Police are doing a service in helping keep the city safe, it makes sense that they would have some basic medical training, not to mention a First Aid kit in their cruiser. This would allow them to perform First Aid on people injured from things like car crashes. While this won't heal them or keep them from dying, it will slow their death, giving a Medic more time to respond.
Firefighters should have more advanced medical training than Police, and while not as skilled as Paramedics, and lacking some of the tools Paramedics have in their Ambulance, Firefighters should be able to stabilize patients, and allow plenty of time for the often overworked Paramedic to arrive.
TL;DR: Give police the ability to perform first aid on accident victims which reduces how fast the victim's health declines. Give firefighters the ability to perform more extensive first aid and 'stabilise' victims; so they don't lose health.
Why:
This would add realism, and allow for better roleplay. In real life, all First Responders have some degree of medical training, usually because ambulances are the last thing to arrive. This training helps save lives. By adding this to LL, we would increase the odds of surviving a car crash (at least when there is a Paramedic on). In addition, this does not render the Paramedic useless, as they would be the only ones able to revive the victim, Police/Firefighters can only slow/stop the health loss.
