Introduction
When it comes to defining first aid, it means the immediate care provided to an ill or injured person before a proper medical treatment is availed. In other words, first aid can be regarded as the life saving measures. But, why is it so important to know about first aid? The main purpose of first aid is to save the lives of people in life threatening accidental situations when no help is around. No doubt, the era we live in is the era of technologies, machines and modern vehicles, but unfortunately we are utilizing these facilities at the cost of our precious lives. The incidences of fire cases and road side accidents have been increasing for the past few decades. But, in most of the accidental situations, the death of the victim happens due to the lack of immediate medical treatment. Sometimes, it is not possible for the ambulance or a doctor to reach to the calamity stricken location immediately. What would you do if a friend of yours was choking in front of you and none of the people are around you was a doctor? Obviously, you just wouldn’t let your friend die in front of your eyes. This is where your training or knowledge of first aid would come handy, if you had any. By knowing the first aid skills, you might be at least able to save the life of victims on the spot before help could arrive. This clearly portrays the importance of first aid training. The number of precious lives that we lose every year in accidents can be significantly reduced by promoting the concept of first aid training.
This basic purpose of this book is to teach you different techniques and maneuvers that everyone should at least have some knowledge about. Who knows when you might face an emergency? It’s better to be prepared than not. So, buckle your seat belts and dive into the world of handy first aid skills that you should know. I’m sure by the time you reach the end of this book, you’ll be happy that you came across something this good.
