We'll go to the doctor when we feel flu-ish or a nagging pain. So why don’t we see a health professional when we feel emotional pain: guilt, loss, loneliness? Too many of us deal with common psychological-health issues on our own, says Guy Winch. But we don’t have to. He makes a compelling case to practice emotional hygiene — taking care of our emotions, our minds, with the same diligence we take care of our bodies.

Do you know how to administer first aid? Almost all of us remember some basic things about the rules of providing first aid. But is our knowledge correct, or is what we know too fragmented to be useful? Knowing basic first aid methods is very important, but it’s crucial to perform them correctly so as not to compromise the life you’re trying to save.

TIMESTAMPS:
Tilting your head back during a nosebleed 0:40
Forcing a fainted person to sit up 1:29
Putting heat on a sprain or fracture 1:59
Trying to remove debri from your body 2:31
Treating a burn too quickly 3:05
Going straight into the Heimlich maneuver for choking victims 3:37
Putting something in a seizing person’s mouth 4:10
Prioritizing mouth-to-mouth resuscitation for heart attack victims 4:52
Not knowing what you’re doing 5:43
Using a tourniquet for a bleeding wound 6:17

Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/

SUMMARY:
- Tilting your head back can make the blood travel from your nose to your throat, which means you could find yourself choking on or swallowing blood.
- When someone faints, our immediate course of action is to try to sit them up, especially when shaking them doesn’t seem to be helping. Instead of all that, always start by checking their breathing and pulse.
- Ice should be used for acute situations, like suddenly spraining your ankle. Heat is for chronic conditions, like back pain.
- If the tool you use isn’t sterile or if you underestimate how deep the wound is, you risk getting an infection and doing further damage.
- If the water is to actually help the skin, you need to hold the burn under it for at least 20 minutes.
- The Red Cross has updated their guidelines on how to give first aid to choking victims, so instead of going straight for the Heimlich maneuver, here’s what you’re supposed to do instead. Stand behind the victim, lean them forward, and give their back 5 quick blows with the heel of your hand.
- In a panic-induced state at seeing someone having a seizure, a lot of people immediately try to block the person’s mouth for fear of the victim biting their own tongue. This is actually dangerous for the victim and for the person trying to help.
- A common mistake is to think that mouth-to-mouth resuscitation is more important than chest compressions.
- The first line of action in all serious first aid situations is to call for help, and let a professional guide you through what you need to do.
- If someone has a deep wound in their arm or leg, applying a tourniquet can stop the blood flow to the entire limb, which can actually starve the tissues of oxygen and possibly lead to amputation. Using a tourniquet should never be the first choice.

Fainting is when someone briefly becomes unresponsive, often causing the person fall to the ground. It happens because for a moment there is not enough blood flowing to the brain.

This film shows why it’s vitally important that everyone learns first aid. St John Ambulance has thousands of volunteers, yet it’s impossible for them to be there all the time. You can be the difference between a life lost and a life saved.

We believe that it’s absolutely unacceptable that so many people die needlessly – because no one could give them first aid when they needed it.

St John Ambulance teaches people first aid – about 800,000 last year alone – so that they can be the difference between a life lost and a life saved.

As a charity, we’re committed to making sure more people can be the difference between a life lost and a life saved. To do that, we need your help.

First Aid in Choking

Helping someone who is choking #FirstAid #ThePowerOfKindness
First aid advice on how to help someone who is choking

Millions of people are hurt or killed by injuries every year due to inadequate response or lack of timely assistance. Taking immediate action and applying the appropriate techniques, while waiting for professional help, can considerably reduce deaths and injuries, and the impact of disasters and everyday emergencies.

First aid is a humanitarian action that should be accessible to all. The Red Cross Red Crescent is asking for legislative provisions to make first aid training compulsory for every driving licence candidate. It is also essential to introduce first aid training to every person at all stages of their life -- at home, in school, at the workplace. First aid training should be accessible to everyone, not just to those who can afford it.

At one time or another in our lives, we’ll all need to administer first aid of some sort. But what are some of the different situations we might encounter and how do we handle them? Join Spokeskids Ethan and Jacquelynn as they learn some "FIRST AID basics" from Trios trauma care coordinator Melanie, including a rundown of helpful first aid kit supplies and what to do with them.

A St John Ambulance trainer shows you how to treat a cut or a graze. These simple first aid steps will show you how to clean a wound, apply pressure and raise the wound. These essential first aid skills will help you to treat people with minor injuries.

Bleeding can kill someone in as little as 3-5 minutes. Hear from the Red Cross Scientific Advisory Council experts to understand how to control bleeding with the use of tourniquets or other materials until help arrives. Accidents happen every day and understanding how to treat these wounds, along with the proper use of a tourniquet is vital. First Aid classes can help individuals and companies properly treat someone with severe bleeding and help save a life.

A St John Ambulance trainer shows you how to give first aid to someone if you think they might be unresponsive or need your help. You’ll need to go through a primary survey every time you help someone. A primary survey is a series of first aid checks that will help you find out if someone has any life-threatening injuries or conditions.
