First aid is the assistance that one gives to a person who has an emergency medical condition such as serious bleeding, choking, or the need for CPR. It is essential for people who may not be trained in other areas of healthcare. For example, paramedics are valuable because they have medical training and equipment to handle more serious emergencies than someone without those qualifications. It is important to learn First Aid because it can help save someone's life. This is especially true for those who do not have training in other areas of healthcare and are the first to respond to emergencies. It is also important because a person's life may be saved by knowing how to provide basic assistance in an emergency through CPR, or the Heimlich maneuver. Within the United States alone, about 300,000 people die from heart disease every year (CDC). One should be able to give correct CPR because it could relieve a person from cardiac arrest until medical professionals can arrive. First Aid could also be useful for many other reasons such as burns, bleeding, and bone and muscle injuries. The purpose of this book is to inform the reader of the information needed to help someone with an emergency and to provide tips for how to respond if confronted with one.
