Be the One Who Makes a Difference When "Minutes Matter"

First aid is the first and immediate assistance given to any person with either a minor or serious illness or injury, with care provided to preserve the precious life…..

One set of goals of first aid is called the "Three P's":

• Preserve life – stop the person from dying
• Prevent further injury – stop the person from being injured even more. If possible, an injured person should not be moved. First aid can include how to safely move injured people or move them anyway with less harm if there is no choice.
• Promote recovery – try to help the person heal their injuries.
