When something unexpected happens like a cut while chopping vegetables, a child slipping on the floor, or someone fainting in the heat most of us freeze for a moment. But basic first aid is all about staying calm and knowing a few quick steps that can really help until proper medical care is available. You don’t need to be a professional to save a life sometimes it’s as simple as pressing on a wound or calling for help quickly.
