Emergency First Aid at Work – Refresher
Invariably, first aids save lives. In any emergency situations, professional help is not always immediately accessible. There is always a time interval wherein a person still has to wait for the ambulance or professional healers to come to rescue, may it be minutes or seconds. In the life of a person, every drop of the clock’s second hand counts. The poison may spread in seconds, blood loss may become heavier in minutes, and a heart attack may be so appalling that a single mishandling can end one’s life.
