First aid is the help given to someone who is injured or ill to keep them safe and to cause no further harm. The role of a first aider is to give someone this help. Learn what to do.

  • Prior to give first aid, the first aider must ask permission to the injured in order to proceed and touch the injured. (This even includes your wife/husband)
  • If the injured declines help that requires touch, the first aider can still help in other ways such as calling emergency services and or relevant parties to the injured.
  • If the injured is not conscientious, permission is still required to be asked but upon no reply, the first aider may decide to proceed.
