What is the 3 main objectives of first aid and its 10 principles??
Question:
Answers:
First Aid is the immediate and temporary proper aid provided to a sick or injured person or animal until medical treatment can be provided. It generally consists of series of simple, life-saving medical techniques that a non-doctor or lay person can be trained to perform with minimal equipment.
In first aid, emergency action principles seek to describe what to do when encountering an emergency situation.
Traditionally the method has been called ABC for "Airway", "Breathing" and "Circulation". However in the United Kingdom C has been taken out of this method. Easy to remember and in order of importance. However, in the military a "H" Hazardous situation is sometimes added, and the B stands for "Bleeding", as the military patient will probably bleed more often than not, making it HABC, or by some training organisations "Danger" and "Response" are added making DR ABC or "DR!AB". With Danger, Responce, Shout for help! Airway, Breathing.
The remainder of this article contains one such formulation.
