First Aid Training Course Content
During this course you will learn:
- Assess the Scene: Ensure your safety and the safety of others before assisting anyone. Check for hazards and assess the situation before providing aid.
- Call for Help: If needed, call emergency services immediately. Time is crucial in emergencies, so don’t hesitate to seek professional assistance.
- ABCs: Check the person’s Airway, Breathing, and Circulation. Ensure their airway is clear, check for breathing, and assess circulation by checking for a pulse.
- CPR: If the person is not breathing or has no pulse, begin CPR immediately. Perform chest compressions and rescue breaths until help arrives.
- Stop the Bleed: Control bleeding by applying direct pressure to the wound with a clean cloth or bandage. Elevate the injured limb if possible and continue to apply pressure until bleeding stops.
- Treat Shock: If the person shows signs of shock (pale skin, rapid pulse, shallow breathing), lay them down, elevate their legs, and cover them with a blanket to keep them warm.
