2 For Teachers: Introduction Summer means spending time outdoors enjoying sport and recreational activities. It also means being prepared to manage outdoor emergency situations. Would you know what to do? Much as we hate to think about it, accidents do happen. Every year many people die and hundreds are injured in accidents. Would you know what to do in an emergency? This program, aimed at Year 11 and 12 students, looks at the essential aspects of first aid required to assist someone who needs help. It focuses on dealing with some common summer related injures such as heat related injuries, cold related injuries, near drowning, spinal injuries and venomous bites and stings. This program will give you the basics to make a difference and protect life, possibly even your own.
