Emergency
Burns 
• Put the burn under cold water for 10 minutes 
• Loosely cover the burn with cling film or a 
plastic bag 
• If clothing is stuck to the wound to not try to 
pull it off and do not burst any blisters
Choking 
• Apply the haemic maneuver 
• If necessary call an ambulance or take them 
to the hospital
Heavy Bleeding 
• Cover the wound with whatever you can and 
apply pressure until help arrives
Broken Bones 
• Encourage the person to support the injury 
with their hand or if possible provide them 
with a cushion, item of clothing or pillow to 
support it..
Head Injury 
• If there is any bleeding 
be sure to firmly press 
a clean cloth on the 
wound and apply 
pressure 
• If it is serious be careful 
not to move their head 
• If they are vomiting roll 
them into the recovery 
position to avoid 
choking
How Can I learn More?
