This training course begins with first aid basics, such as how to check responsiveness and recognize common symptoms, before we show you how to treat injuries and cardiac arrest. We explain how to handle choking and how to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) or use an automated external defibrillator (AED). This course offers global accreditation for your new life-saving skills, so sign up to become a qualified safety officer.
This course explains how to provide first aid to people with different emergencies, including medical problems, traumatic injuries, and environmental injuries. We define ‘first aid’ and outline its basic steps before delving into the contents of a standard first-aid kit. We introduce you to the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) technique, which combines ‘rescue breathing’ and chest compressions to rescue people in medical distress.
The course then discusses choking since it is the most common incident at home or the workplace. We show you how to perform first aid on choking infants, children, and adults. We then widen our analysis of CPR and demonstrate how to safely apply and use automated external defibrillators (AED) to get hearts beating regularly during cardiac events.
This course trains you to provide first aid for common accidents, illnesses, medical problems, and more. We help you learn life-saving skills at your own pace, so sign up to acquire international accreditation that tells people you know how to save lives in a crisis. This course can help keep you and your loved ones safe at home and also qualifies you to be your office’s safety officer, something every workplace needs.
Band-Aid is a brand name for adhesive bandages, which are small strips of material with an adhesive backing used to cover and protect minor cuts, scrapes, and wounds. The Band-Aid brand is owned by Johnson & Johnson and has become synonymous with adhesive bandages in many parts of the world.
Band-Aids typically consist of a small, flexible bandage strip made of fabric or plastic with a gauze pad in the center to cover the wound. The adhesive backing allows the bandage to stick to the skin, providing protection from dirt, germs, and further injury while the wound heals.
In addition to traditional bandages, Band-Aid offers a variety of products, including waterproof bandages, clear bandages, bandages with antibiotic ointment, and specialized bandages for blisters and other types of wounds.
Band-Aids are a common item found in first aid kits, medicine cabinets, and emergency supplies, and they are widely used for minor injuries in homes, schools, workplaces, and healthcare settings.
