INSTRUCTIONAL OBJECTIVES

This course is designed to prepare the participant to give immediate care to a person who has been injured or suddenly taken ill while in the officer/investigator/protective agent's presence until more advanced help arrives.

You will be taught appropriate reactive methods of treating injuries.  This course provides knowledge of medical emergencies, as well as signs and symptoms these medical emergencies present so that the officer/investigator/agent may be pro-active in recognizing that a person may need immediate medical attention.  You will be presented with well selected words of encouragement, evidence of willingness to help, and promotion of confidence by demonstration of competence. 

The participant learns that he/she must deal with the whole situation, assuring his/her own, as well as, the patient's safety, scene assessment, the importance of calling for advanced help immediately, and providing good patient care in the meantime.

The participant will learn what not to do, as well as what he/she can do to avoid errors that are frequently made by untrained persons through well-meant but misguided efforts.  The participant will also know that his/her first aid knowledge and skill can mean the difference between life and death, between temporary and permanent disability, and between rapid recovery and long hospitalization.
