Students must understand the importance of First- aid. The timely decision and action can save an ill or an injured person. First- aid is the immediate and temporary care given to the victim of an accident or sudden illness.

3. FRACTURES

IMMOBUSE the fractured part with a well padded stiff support reaching the joints on either side. Apply bandages on either side of the site and at the joints on either side with support.

A burn is caused by dry heat and a scald by moist heat like steam, very hot water or oil. IMMEDIATELY cool the area with cold water- for 15 mins. till pain subsides Do NOT break blisters or apply anything on the burns. Cover with a sterile or clean cloth, pad and bandage. Give fluids.

The soft part of the nose may be pinched close with the fingers for 10 mins. Cold application on the back of the neck and forehead may help.
