PRINCIPLES OF FIRST AID:

PRINCIPLES

The principles of first aid are: a) To prevent further injury to the casualty and to avoid injury to yourself: (e.g., from electricity, flames, collapsing building or any other hazards. b) To assess and treat the casualty in the correct order of priority .c) To place casualties in a comfortable position.d) To immobilize injured limbs.e)To relieve pain and anxiety if possible.f) To arrange evacuation if necessary in the correct priority.

PRIORITY OF TREATMENT

Some injuries are more serious than others and in general they should always be treated in the following order: 1. AIRWAY - Casualties with airway problems. 2. BREATHING - Casualties with difficulty in breathing or whose breathing has stopped
3 CIRCULATION - Casualties with bleeding wounds or are in shock. 4. DISABLITY - Casualties with other injuries, e.g. breaks and burns.
