In Europe, every nurse and health worker, as well as many public workers, must complete three main trainings before starting their job. They also need to refresh their training yearly or every few years.
These trainings are:
1. Fire Safety Training 2.
Manual/People Handling
3. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)

This teaches how to prevent fires, respond to them, and evacuate safely. Shouting "blood of Jesus" or "Holy ghost fire" is because we're not trained and we don't have facilities to fight or prevent simple fires.
It includes:
1. Fire Prevention:
Recognizing fire hazards and safely storing flammable materials.
2. Fire Response:
Knowing how to use fire extinguishers and when to fight a fire or evacuate.
3.Emergency Evacuation Procedures:
Understanding alarm systems, escape routes, and practicing drills.
4. First Aid and Emergency Response: Basic care for burns and helping others during an evacuation.
5. Legal Compliance:
Knowing local fire laws and the roles of fire wardens. This training is essential in places like workplaces and schools to reduce fire-related injuries and deaths by ensuring everyone knows how to act quickly and safely during a fire.

Manual handling, or people handling when moving individuals, involves transporting or supporting loads using hands or body strength. This includes actions like lifting, carrying, and moving a person from one place to another, such as from a bed to a wheelchair.
Key Points
1. Risk Assessment: -
Evaluate the task for risks like weight, distance, and awkward positions. - Consider the environment, including space and floor conditions.
2. Proper Techniques: -
Use correct lifting methods to avoid injury, like bending knees and keeping the back straight. - Avoid twisting while lifting; use legs instead of the back.
3. Use of Equipment: - Use tools like hoists and wheelchairs to help move people safely. - Ensure equipment is functional and users are trained.
4. Team Lifting: - Work with others for heavy tasks to lift safely. - Communicate clearly with team members for coordinated movement.
5. Training: - Provide regular training on safe handling techniques for workers. - Training should include both theory and practical skills.
6. Legal and Safety Compliance: - Be aware of legal guidelines on manual handling, including weight limits and training requirements.
- Ensure safe practices to minimize injury risks for both handlers and those being moved.

Manual handling often leads to workplace injuries, especially back pain. Proper training is essential for anyone involved in physically moving loads or people. It helps prevent injuries, protects the dignity of those being moved, and creates a safer work environment, especially in healthcare settings.

CPR is a lifesaving technique used when someone's heart stops or a person stops breathing. The aim is to keep blood flowing to the brain and vital organs until medical help arrives.
๐๐๐ ๐๐ญ๐๐ฉ๐ฌ:
1. Chest Compressions: - What to Do:
Push hard and fast in the center of the chest, about 2 inches deep, at a rate of 100-120 compressions per minute. Let the chest rise fully between compressions.
2. Rescue Breaths: - What to Do:
After 30 compressions, tilt the head back, pinch the nose, and give two breaths into the mouth, each lasting about one second.
3. CPR Order (CAB): - C-ompressions: Start with chest compressions if the person is unresponsive and not breathing.
- A-irway: Check and open the airway after compressions.
- B-reathing: Give rescue breaths if trained; otherwise, continue with chest compressions.
๐๐ฒ๐ฉ๐๐ฌ ๐จ๐ ๐๐๐:
1. Adult CPR: Involves both compressions and rescue breaths. Untrained bystanders can perform "hands-only" CPR (just compressions).
2. Child and Infant CPR: - Compressions are shallower. - Use one hand for children and two fingers for infants. - Breaths should be gentler.
3. Hands-Only CPR: For untrained rescuers or when breaths aren't possible; focus on continuous chest compressions.
๐๐ฆ๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐๐ง๐๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐๐:
- Quick Action: Start CPR immediately after cardiac arrest; every minute without it decreases survival chances by about 10%.
- Support Until Help Arrives: Keeps blood flowing until professionals can take over.
- Learnable Skill: Anyone can learn CPR, which can save lives in emergencies.

CPR training is available through organizations like the American Heart Association and Red Cross, often including hands-on practice and AED training
