Schools are supposed to be safe places for children. Sadly, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) (国际红十字委员会) has seen accidents happen in schools from time to time. For this reason, the ICRC began its education programme in 2017. First-aid (急救) training in schools around the world is one of its plans.
Kate is a 16-year-old student who wants to become a doctor. She lives in New York. She took part in ICRC’s first-aid training in spring of 2021. One important lesson she learned was that in dangerous situations everyone must take care of themselves first before helping others. Since attending the training, Kate has already helped her friend who hurt his hand with broken glass. She was able to stop the bleeding and bandage the wound herself. She even taught some of the other students who could not take part in the training as well as her younger cousins some of the skills she learned. “The training is important, ”Kate said. “The teachers and students in our school used to know little about first aid. Now we can carry out some of the techniques correctly in different situations.”
Thanks to the ICRC’s first-aid training, many students and teachers, like Kate, have become professional (专业的) first aiders.

If you or someone near you is in danger, how will you do the first aid? Mr. Zhang, a doctor in Beijing First Aid Center has some useful suggestions.
Check the environment. Watch the situation carefully. Is there anything that might do harm to you? Will you or the victim he hurt by fire, harmful smoke, a broken building, electrical wires or other dangerous situations? Do not rush into a place where you could be a victim yourself.
If being close to the victim will put your life in danger, search for skilled help at once. Skilled people have received special training and know how to deal with these situations. First aid isn't helpful if you do it but hurt yourself.
Call for help. Call the police or some other first aid services immediately if you believe someone is seriously injured. If you are the only person on the scene, try to restart the patient's breath before calling for help. Do not leave the victim alone.
Care for the person. Care for someone who has just gone through serious hardness. Remember to stay calm, encourage him(her)and you should be reassuring. Let the person know that help is on its way and that everything will be all right.
