Delivering first aid
- Enabling practical first aid
Description
Delivering first aid involves the immediate and practical application of basic medical techniques to stabilize individuals suffering from injury or sudden illness. The core intent is to preserve life, prevent the condition from worsening, and promote recovery until professional medical help arrives. This strategy addresses urgent health crises by controlling bleeding, maintaining open airways, treating shock, and providing reassurance, thereby reducing the risk of complications and improving survival outcomes in emergency situations.
