First aid priorities: you will learn to recognise priority threats and find out how to stay safe during a rescue 3.

Coordinating a rescue: we show you how to effectively get bystanders involved – explaining the psychological aspects of giving first aid 5. Assessing the casualty: we show you how to examine a casualty and assess their vital functions and level of consciousness.
