First Aid, CPR, Burns and Casualty Handling

Scene Safety First Aid

First aid starts only after the rescuer and casualty are protected from continuing danger.

Airway Breathing

Airway and breathing problems take priority over minor wounds.

Cool Burns

Thermal burns should be cooled with clean running water when appropriate and not covered with random substances.

Spinal Care

Suspected spinal injury needs movement control and careful handover.

Clear Handover

Medical handover should include mechanism, findings, treatment, time and changes.
