first aid station

Emergency treatment tent

A first aid station is a designated location where basic medical treatment is available for minor injuries or sudden illness.

These are typically set up at large public gatherings—concerts, sporting events, festivals—staffed by volunteers or emergency personnel who can handle cuts, sprains, heat exhaustion, or stabilize someone until an ambulance arrives.
