Frequently asked questions

What is First Aid?

First Aid is the immediate care provided to a person who is injured or suddenly becomes ill. Its primary goal is to stabilize the individual until professional medical help arrives.
How do I perform CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation)?

Start by checking for responsiveness. If unresponsive, call for help and begin chest compressions at a rate of 100-120 per minute. Combine compressions with rescue breaths in a ratio of 30:2 until professional help arrives.
What's the first step in helping someone who may be choking?

Encourage the person to cough forcefully. If coughing doesn't work, perform the Heimlich maneuver by giving quick abdominal thrusts until the obstruction is cleared or emergency assistance arrives.
How should burns be treated initially?

Cool the burn with running water for at least 10 minutes. Cover the burn loosely with a sterile, non-stick bandage. Do not use ice, ointments, or adhesive bandages directly on the burn. Seek medical attention for severe burns.
What should I do in case of a severe bleeding emergency?

Apply direct pressure to the wound using a clean cloth or bandage. Elevate the injured area if possible and seek medical help immediately.
