How to Control bleeding – effective manner

    Using your fingers or palm, press down
1   directly on the wound. Use a clean pad if
    possible. Maintain pressure on the wound for
    at least 10 minutes to allow the blood to clot.
How to Control bleeding – effective manner

    Do not apply pressure if an object is
2   embedded in the wound. Instead, push the
    edges of the cut together as much as possible,
    and press down firmly on both sides.
How to Control bleeding – effective manner

    If the wound is on an arm or leg, you can
3   slow the blood flow by lifting the limb above
    the level of the victim's heart.
WARNING - NEVER USE A TOURNIQUET

       Note
    Never use a
  tourniquet. You
  could make the
bleeding worse and
   cause further
   damage to the
  injured tissues.
POISONING – Emergency treatment

    If a person has swallowed an acid or burning
1   poison, such as kerosene or any other
    household chemicals
POISONING – Emergency treatment

    a. Give sips of milk or water to the
2   victim, making sure she does not
    choke.

    b. Help the victim to the health centre
    immediately.


     DO NOT make a person vomit acid
    poison, as this will cause more burning
POISONING – Emergency treatment
If a person has swallowed a poison that is not acid (for example,
poisonous berries, seeds, mushrooms, pesticide or medicines) and
                          is still awake:



 a. Give sips of water to the victim, making sure she does
 not choke. Help the victim to the health centre immediately.



               b. Do not induce vomiting. If the victim vomits on her own
               however, bring a sample to the health centre so medical
               personnel can identify the poison.
ELECTROCUTION - emergency
If the person is still in contact with the electricity, you MUST do the
             following before you administer First Aid:
ELECTROCUTION - emergency



1   Look for danger!


    Stop the current! Switch off the
2   electrical current at the main switch
    before pulling out the plug.
ELECTROCUTION - emergency
    If you cannot stop the

3   current, you MUST:

    Remove the electrical
    source from the person. To
    protect yourself, stand on a
    piece of wood or folded
    paper, and wear rubber
    shoes. Using a piece of dry
    wood (for example, a
    broom) or rolled papers,
    knock the electrical source
    away from the person.
BURNS & SCALDS – emergency treatment
    Lay the victim down, taking

1   care that the burn does not
    come in contact with the
    ground. Rinse the burn with
    cold water for 10 minutes,
    checking the victim's pulse
    and breathing as you do so.
BURNS & SCALDS – emergency treatment
    Gently peel back clothing,

2   but do not touch it if it is
    stuck to the burn. Remove
    watches, jewelleries , belts,
    tight clothing and anything
    similar before swelling
    begins.
BURNS & SCALDS – emergency treatment
    Cover the burn with a sterile


3
    dressing. If one of suitable
    size is not available, use
    ordinary kitchen cling film
    instead. However, remember
    to discard the first two turns
    from the roll to avoid
    contaminating the wound with
    germs. Cover the victim with
    a blanket to keep her warm
    and prevent shock.

    Call an ambulance and check the

4   victim's pulse and breathing as
    you wait
