Why do we start infant CPR with 5 rescue breaths instead of chest compressions? 🤔👶
Because most emergencies in babies are due to breathing issues , not heart problems! 🫁❌
Choking, drowning, or airway infections can stop their breathing before their heart stops.
So we must give oxygen first to improve their chances of survival! 💨❤️
Here’s how to respond if a baby (under 1 year) is unresponsive and not breathing normally:
1️⃣ Gently tap the foot and shout ➡️ Is the baby okay? 🦶👶❓
2️⃣ Call for help 📞 or alert emergency services 🚑
3️⃣ Tilt the head slightly and lift the chin to open the airway 👃👄
4️⃣ Seal your mouth over the baby’s mouth and nose, and give 5 gentle rescue breaths 💨💨💨💨💨
5️⃣ Still unresponsive? Begin CPR!
• Use 2 fingers in the center of the chest 👆👆
• Push 1.5 inches deep, at 100–120 compressions per minute ⏱️🫀
• After 30 compressions, give 2 breaths — and repeat 🔄 30:2
Don’t stop until help arrives or the baby starts breathing again ⏳❤️👶
Stay calm
Act fast
Save a tiny life
Let’s build a world where every parent, teacher, and caregiver knows Infant CPR

Sprains are usually an unalarming injury, and most of the time they’ll heal on their own. But there are steps you can take to ease the swelling. Swelling is caused by blood flow to an injured area. You can reduce swelling by applying ice. Ice restricts the blood vessels, which reduces blood flow.

Keep the injured limb elevated.
Apply ice to the injured area. Don’t apply ice directly to the skin. Wrap it in a cloth or put ice in a plastic bag.
Keep the injured area compressed. Put it in a brace or tightly wrap it. Don’t wrap it so tight that it’ll cut off circulation.
Ice for a while. Then compress. Repeat at intervals.
Make sure the injured person avoids putting weight on the injured limb.

These goals might seem overly simple, but they’re simple on purpose. When someone is injured, it’s all-too-easy to panic and forget what you need to do to provide assistance. The Three P’s remind you of the very basics: do what you can to save the person’s life; do what you can to keep them from sustaining further injuries; do what you can to help them heal.

The danger from an electrical shock depends on the type of current, how high the voltage is, how the current traveled through the body, the person's overall health and how quickly the person is treated.

An electrical shock may cause burns, or it may leave no visible mark on the skin. In either case, an electrical current passing through the body can cause damage inside the body, cardiac arrest or other injury. Sometimes, even a small amount of electricity can be fatal.

First aid is important because it can save lives, prevent injuries from worsening, and reduce the severity of an injury or illness. Timely administration of first aid can stabilize a person's condition, provide necessary care until medical help arrives, and increase the chances of a full recovery.

In some cases, first aid can even mean the difference between life and death. Knowing basic first aid skills can empower individuals to act confidently and effectively in emergency situations, making a positive impact on the well-being of those around them.

The bad news is that not many people know the importance of first aid because they think it’s a job exclusive to medical professionals. In fact, it’s a life skill we all should try to learn.
