             First Aid


             First aid is also used to help people who suddenly become sick, until help arrives or they can be
             taken to medical care. A person does not need much equipment to give first aid.


               Preserve life – stop the person from getting more critical.
               Prevent further injury – stop the person from being injured even more.
               Promote recovery – try to help the person heal their injuries



             First aid can be provided in many ways, depending on the nature of injury.
