FIRST AID [abc]

If an accident happened you should first get an overview of the situation. Is there any risks? Who needs help first? Talk to the people who're injured. Next step is to give them first aid.

Breathing

  • Check that the injured can breathe. If not you must practice mouth to mouth method. When you do that you must squeeze his nose and controll that the breast is rising. When it works put him into side position.

Bleeding

  • Begin with placing the hurt part into a high level and stop the bleeding with your fingers. Further on you put a bandage on it and a compress if necessary. If you don't have a compress take something else. And don't pull it too hard. You should also always clean large wounds.

Shock

  • Keep an eye of the injured person and of course look if he is cold. It's a good thing if he will rest. No drinking in this case. If the person is unconscious place him in side position so he can breathe.
