First Aid Technique You Should Know

While learning first aid might seem a daunting task, there are really only a handful of simple techniques that everyone should be familiar with. These techniques form the basis of almost all first-aid treatments and will prove invaluable if you're someday faced with an emergency situation. Although a book is a good place to start, it's always best to get instruction from a qualified health care provider before trying any of these techniques. In addition, always remember the the most important rule of medicine: First, do no harm.

The following sections on CPR and the Heimlich maneuver come straight from the American Heart Association (AHA). I strongly recommend that you contact your local chapter of the AHA to find out more about training and certification in these lifesaving techniques in your area.

From now I will write about First Aid techniques everyone should know. Just comes in this blog often, and makes some common if you like it. Enjoy.
