First Aid Workshop

Program of medicine and surgery organized the first workshop about “First Aid” presented by:
Dr/ Sahar wasel - at the General Administration of Medical Affairs.

First aid is the initial help given to someone who is injured or ill. It includes basic treatments
like cleaning wounds, performing CPR, or applying bandages. Quick

CPR technique:

CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) is a life-saving

technique used when someone's heart or breathing stops. It
involves chest compressions to maintain blood flow and, if

needed, rescue breaths to supply oxygen. Quick action is vital,
as it greatly improves survival chances until medical help

arrives. Learning CPR is an essential skill for emergencies.
What should you do in emergency situations?

In an emergency, stay calm and focused. First, call for help.
Quickly assess the situation and ensure it's safe for you to
act. If needed, provide first aid, like CPR, or stop bleeding
with pressure. Only move injured people if they’re in

immediate danger. Stay with the person, reassure them,
and wait for professionals to arrive, following their

instructions carefully.
