Question

If you or someone near you is in danger, how will you do the first aid? Mr. Zhang, a doctor in Beijing First Aid Center has some useful suggestions.

Check the environment. Watch the situation carefully. Is there anything that might do harm to you? Will you or the victim be hurt by fire, harmful smoke, a broken building, electrical wires or other dangerous situations? Do not rush into a place where you could be a victim yourself.

If being close to the victim will put your life in danger, search for skilled help at once. Skilled people have received special training and know how to deal with these situations. First aid isn ‘ t helpful if you do it but hurt yourself.

Call for help. Call the police or some other first-aid services immediately if you believe someone is seriously injured. If you are the only person on the scene，try to restart the patient，s breath before calling for help. Do not leave the victim alone.

Care for the person. Care for someone who has just gone through serious hardness. Remember to stay calm, encourage him (her) and you should be reassuring. Let the person know that help is on its way and that everything will be all right.
