Basic first aid

What is a first responder? 1. first person at the scene of an accident or emergency 2. can be a lay person or someone that has training or experience 3. may or may not have equipment or supplies

First things first 1. determine the nature and seriousness of the injury. 2. determine if you have the training to handle the emergency. 3. determine if you have supplies to handle the emergency.

What to ask yourself 1. is the scene safe? Is there something that may happen to me or others if I try to help. Example: electrical wires down: if the person is on a wire, will it hurt me, too? Poison gas or vapors: if I run into the scene, will be overcome, too?
