First Aide

 Today we learnt about First Aide. A girl called Paula from St John came in and taught us.

These are the instructions.

-Danger (check for 5 seconds to see if there is any danger.)

-Response (talk to them and see if they respond then tap them on their collarbone with the back of your hand.)

-Send for help (if they dont answer call 111.)

-Airway (lift their head up to help them breathe.)

-Breathing (check if they are breathing.)

-C.P.R (do C.P.R on them.)

-Defib (AED) 

Paula taught us how to do C.P.R. You link your fingers through your knuckles and press down. We done it on fake people for 2 minutes, it was very tiring. Paula also told us that it could break their ribs while doing it.

Paula taught us how to put on a bandage. We put a pad onto where they were bleeding and then wrapped the bandage around their arm. 

She showed us a Defib. You put two sticky things (that shock them) onto their stomach and If the person stops breathing then it tells you then you have to stand back and it will shock them.
