WHAT IS FIRST AID, AND WHEN IS IT GIVEN?

According to my own personal understanding first aid and simply be defined as the emergency treatment we offer to a person who is injured or ill until a full medical treatment is made available.

Like I have set earlier first aid ⛑️ is a lite treatment which is being given to a patient before he or she is being taken to the hospital to receive a full medical treatment and if in the case of minor problems first aid treatment can be enough but in the case of a very serious problem first aid treatment should continue on to your a full medical treatment is met available.

WHAT IS THE IMPORTANCE OF GIVING FIRST AID?

Some of the importance of first aid to a patients are;

• In the case of an accident first aid helps in sustaining the victim and until he/she gets a full medical treatment
• First aid saves lives
• First aid prevent injuries from getting worst
• First aid helps in boosting recovery
• First aid immediate treatment helps in relieving pain

And so much more the process of first aid is very important because it has safe so many lives of patients who has been a victim of and accident who is desperately in need of medical attention

WHAT IS A FIRST AID BOX, AND HOW CAN SOMEONE IDENTIFY ONE?

According to my own personal understanding if first aid box is a small emergency box wish contain all the necessary instrument which are being used in serving a patient's life in the case of an accident who is desperately in need of medical attention before the real or should I say the main medical attention is being given.

And how to identify a first-aid box is just very simple a first aid box is always small in nature and durable for easy movement some are white while some are red, then for those that are white you can easily identify them with a red cross while for those that are right in color you can easily identify them with a white cross.
