Presentation transcript:

Vocabulary First Aid: Immediate and temporary care given to the victim of an accident or sudden illness until professional medical help arrives. Barriers to Action: Anything personal that prevents a person from helping at a scene of an accident. Good Samaritan Law: An individual who stops to render assistance to another individual who has been injured or ill, cannot be held liable as long as he/she acts in good faith and to the best of his or her ability. Protected to the limit of your training.

Vocabulary Abandonment: When someone chooses to act at the scene of an emergency, he or she should not leave until other help is available. Implied Consent: When a patient is unconscious, or is so ill or badly injured that his or her judgment or ability to respond are impaired, one generally presumes that he or she consents to be treated.
