This study focuses on a non-governmental-based organization of first-aid training, which has a long tradition and famous here in Taiwan, and makes a comparison with its counterparts abroad.

The purpose of research aims at the study of its background, goal, tasks and first-aid training, with the hope of helping the promotion of its related first-aid training affairs nationwide. 　　 　　With the uprising of the global economy, we have consumed up most part of global resources, and with the over-exploitation so many unpredictable results were brought about, such as green effect, and many other unintentional injuries. According to Department of Health , Executive Yuan, while the consensus of annual causalities has decreased from 11,616 to 8,365 during the last two decades, from 1981 to 2005, which accounts for 12.48% of total sum of death (178,078 persons), and ranks the fourth one in the most common death, yet it is a pity that we have had so many causalities caused by lack of safety knowledge and negligence of the first-aid training education. Therefore, before ensuring the health and safety of common people, we should help to teach them to be familiar with the skills and knowledge of first-aid training. This is also another purpose of the research. 　　 　　As to the subject of the study, the Red Cross First-aid Association of R.O.C. was chosen as the domestic part, and Hong Kong, Asia, England, Europe, and US, America as its counterparts abroad.

In addition, public concern about the promotion of first-aid training is also one of the main tasks; lastly, the publicity of financial management is another point, no matter where they are in Taiwan, Hong Kong, or America. They will publicize their income statements and balance sheets in details, which can be used as a mirror for the management of domestic non-organizations; to sum up, the managerial improvement of the effectiveness of first-aid training and publicity of finance are emphasized in Taiwan and Hong Kong, and the statement of profit and loss is also paid more attention in England and America. What’s different depends on the degree of support and policy of government about the development of non-governmental of organizations.
