Course overview

When a person is injured or ill and full medical treatment is not yet available, the immediate and emergency care that you provide is known as first aid. Sometimes, in the case of smaller conditions or more minor issues, first aid care is adequate. However, in more serious situations, first aid should only be continued until advanced care becomes accessible.

Life and death—this is what hangs in the balance when you act appropriately (or not) with first aid.

The first step is letting the injured or ill person know who you are. It is crucial that you do not touch the person until they have granted you permission to help, so your first step must be introducing yourself as a first aid provider. “Implied consent” is when you assume that the person would want your help in the case that they are unable to answer, such as if a person is confused or is critically injured or ill.
