%X Medical faculty students may encounter an emergency at any time during university education or after graduation. Each physician must be equipped with first aid information and gain basic life support skills before graduation. These skills will also contribute to the development of confidence in the physician. This research was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of first aid training in first year of medicine faculty. This study is a pre-post regulatory intervention (experimental) type study. A questionnaire questioning the sociodemographic characteristics prepared by the researchers was followed by tests before (the pre-test) and after (the post-test) the theoretical-practical training of each subject. The tests that were performed consisted of four separate tests on four subjects (basic life support (TYD), bleeding control, recognition of the state of shock and coma and first aid, first approach to fractures). It was determined that the average post-training test scores of the four subjects evaluated before and after the training were higher than the pre-training test scores. The mean scores of the post-training test on basic life support were significantly higher in the students younger than 20 years of age when compared with students older than 20 years of age. The mean scores of the post-training test related to bleeding control were significantly higher in the students younger than 20 years of age when compared with students older than 20 years of age. The mean scores of pre-training and post-training on bleeding control were significantly higher in women than in men. Positive feedback from students at the end of the training and meaningful point increases in the evaluations made before and after the theoretical training; showed us that first aid training applied in the first year of the Faculty of Medicine can be successfully applied and positively contribute to student motivation
