How to fill out emergency aid skills

1. Assess the scene: Before providing emergency aid, it is important to ensure that the scene is safe for both the victim and yourself. Look for any potential hazards that could cause harm.
2. Call for help: If the situation requires immediate medical attention, call emergency services or ask someone nearby to do so.
3. Check for responsiveness: Gently shake the victim and ask if they are okay. If there is no response, check their breathing and pulse.
4. Perform CPR if necessary: If the victim is not breathing or their breathing is abnormal, start performing CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation). If you are not trained in CPR, provide hands-only CPR by pushing hard and fast on the center of the chest.
5. Control bleeding: If there is visible severe bleeding, apply pressure to the wound with a clean cloth or your hands. Elevate the injured limb if possible to help control bleeding.
6. Treat for shock: If the victim is showing signs of shock (pale skin, rapid breathing, weak pulse), lay them down, elevate their legs slightly, and cover them with a blanket or jacket.
7. Provide basic first aid: Depending on the nature of the emergency, you may need to provide basic first aid such as applying bandages, immobilizing fractures, or administering medications according to instructions.
8. Continuously monitor: Stay with the victim and continue to monitor their condition until medical professionals arrive.
9. Stay calm and reassured: It is important to stay calm and reassure the victim during the emergency. Your presence and support can make a difference.
