HOW TO PROVIDE
FIRST AID WHEN NEEDED?
2
Accidents are an unavoidable part of daily life.
Household and commercial accidents can be
life-threatening at times. Still, you can save
your or a fellow worker's life in need only if
you have been trained in first aid courses in
West Sussex. There are three stages in a
first-aid operation.
3
Preparatory Phase

• Analyze the situation and find out if your skills
  will be helpful or not.
• If you arent sure about the severity of the
  situation, call for medical assistance.
• Only enter a scene if it is safe so that you
  dont end up hurting yourself.

4
Providing First Aid

• Your main aim is to preserve life. 
• Try your best to prevent the injury from
  worsening.
• Perform actions that will promote recovery of
  life, clearing the air passage or covering a burn
  wound.
• Provide CPR or AED if the situation calls for it.

5
The Aftermath

• Remove all the safety gear like gloves, masks and
  eyewear and dispose of them as a biohazard.
• Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.
• Change your clothes and wash any body part that
  came in contact with body fluids.

This is how you can conduct a first aid operation
successfully. UK Mental Health is the
