St John First Aid Facts For A Wide Range Of Emergency Situations

Car Care Tips And Tricks

First aid is essential in many emergency cases and knowing what action needs to be taken to control an emergency can make the difference between life and death.

Emergencies occur all around us, in all spheres of life. Someone may be injured at work, school, home or on the road. When this happens, first aid basics will equip anyone around the injured person to reduce the danger posed by the accident.

For example, if a child breaks a limb during play time at school, an attending teacher may perform first aid to help reset the bones and reduce any pain and discomfort the child may be experiencing.

In cases where the injury causes profuse bleeding, first aid is necessary to reduce the chances of extensive blood loss.

Ambulances don’t always arrive straight away and first aid makes all the difference in the time it takes the ambulance to arrive.

We are very pleased to now offer you access to some St John First Aid Facts as part of the Auto Advisor Mobile App.
