Do you have a first aid kit?
Pronto soccorso: PRON-to sok-KOR-so. The emergency phrase is the same — il pronto soccorso is also the A&E department.
Ask a fellow hiker, rifugio staff, or guide in any minor emergency. Also a good question at the start of a group hike to know who carries first aid.
Ha is the formal 'do you have' (third-person singular of avere, used with the formal Lei). Un kit di pronto soccorso is 'a first aid kit'. Clear and simple.
Avete delle bende al rifugio?
Do you have bandages at the hut?
Bende — bandages. All rifugi must keep a basic first aid kit.
Dove posso disinfettare questa ferita?
Where can I disinfect this wound?
Disinfettare — to disinfect. Ferita — wound.
Ho bisogno di cerotti e acqua ossigenata.
I need plasters and hydrogen peroxide.
Acqua ossigenata — hydrogen peroxide, standard Italian first aid item.
Italian law requires rifugi to maintain a defibrillator (defibrillatore) and a stocked first aid kit. CAI guides are trained in wilderness first aid and mountain rescue. Many Italian hiking clubs include basic first aid training as part of their member education programmes.
