What Is First Aid

What Is First Aid
 by: Jim Withers

First Aid as the words suggest is the care given to a casualty before professional help is required. This help can literally mean the difference between life and death.
The aims of First Aid are: To preserve life To prevent the worsening of any injuries To promote recovery
Why do we need First Aid and more importantly the correct products.
Accidents do happen particularly in the home [approx 2.8million per annum]
You are 20 times more likely to have a fatal accident than win the lottery!

First Aid Misconceptions
You should put butter/cream on a burn. WRONG. The only thing you should put on a burn is water. Keep the butter for cooking!
To do First Aid you need lots of training. WRONG. What you need is commonsense!
You need lots of expensive equipment.WRONG. The basic products are available from Medi-scot Online.
Who uses First Aid?
By law everyone in a working environment from a one-man business to a worldwide plc + sports and the private sectors.
