First Aid at Woodbank
Today Bronwyn from St Johns came and taught us how to keep safe and help people in an emergency. Jessica learnt how to call for an ambulance on the telephone - we dial 1 1 1 slowly and ask for the service we need. Stephanie learnt how to keep safe by putting a bandage on someones hand. Hannah learnt to put a burn under cold water for 20 minutes. If the burn is bigger than your hand you need medical help now! Amelia learnt it is important to keep the patient calm and reassure them.
Zoe learnt how to manage her bleeding noses by holding the bottom of her nose and putting her head forward.
Amelia has fake blood on her hand. She needed to put some pressure on her hand to stop the bleeding. Then Bronwyn bandaged it with the big pressure pad still there.
