What is first aid

First aid is immediate treatment given to the injured person until the proper medical is reached. We can not predict that accident and injuries can occur anywhere anytime. In case an accident happens in front of you, we should not stand and stare nervously at a victim. Instead of that, we need to help them by providing first aid. The first aider must know whether a person is dead or alive. If a victim is alive and you don't have a proper knowledge, then contact a doctor and obtain instructions of first aid to reduce the injury, stopping of bleeding, treatment of the shock, clean the wound. You should be careful while providing first aid because you are saving the life of a victim. So, first aid is very necessary for a victim. Some objectives of first aid are mention below:
