First Aid: Responding in an Emergency

This afternoon Room 6 were fortunate enough to have Kirsty from St Johns come in and teach us what to do if we are faced with an emergency. We learnt, and practiced, each step of the DRSABCD - the acronym which steps you through first aid in emergency situations. Our CPR skills were tested on the dummies, and we also watched a defibrillator in action. We learnt that using both CPR and a defibrillator significantly increases the chances of survival of someone in critical need. Below are some pictures of us hard at work!
