Someone cuts a finger in the kitchen. At the gym, an older gentleman collapes from a heart attack. During a sporting event, a young boy faints from standing too long. Two automobiles collide, seriously injuring the occupants. A youngster floats motionless, face down in a swimming pool. A diner at the next table chokes on food, unable to breath.
It happens everyday. Some of these people just need a helping hand while others will die or suffer serious permanent injury if not immediately attended to.
If you are there at any of these scenes you can step forward and help. You can save or restore a patient’s life. You can reduce a patient’s recovery time. Either in hospital or at home. You can make a difference between a patient having a tempory or a lifelong disability.

Care for children Course
If you interact regularly with children,
you know that accidents happen. Fortunately, most often
these incidents are insignificant, resulting in simple
scrapes and bruises. Children and parents generally
accept that minor injuries and illnesses are part of
growing up. However, there are times when children suffer
from significant medical problems. Automobile accidents,
serious falls, choking, serious bleeding, near drowning,
poisoning and allergic reactions can be very frightening
and devastating for children, parents and rescuers alike.
By becoming an Emergency Responder
and learning how to handle situations
involving injured or ill children,
you are empowered to make a difference.
You can’t control all the variables,
but you can offer assistance that
may improve a child’s chance
of a positive recovery. If you are
willing to jump in and help, you
become an important link between
the problem’s onset and the
arrival of professional medical personnel.
Again you can’t guarantee the
final outcome, but you’ll know
that you did all that could be done.
