Instructor cue, use button No.3

26. In GB nobody is legally obliged to provide First Aid Other European Countries have differing rules with some making you legally responsible to provide First Aid You cannot be sued for providing First Aid to an individual (non responsive casualty) Individuals can refuse First Aid from you as a First Responder You still have HSE regulations you must adhere to Remember just by calling emergency services you might save a life. Do I have to help ?

27. Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 What Are Your Responsibilities? You have a duty of care to yourself and others Do no harm! Be safe, never risk your own safety Take limited risks If put in place, follow your employers guidelines. Is there a definitive Answer?

28. Danger Arriving at the Scene Your first instinct should always be to assess, use the abbreviations D.R.A.B. D Always make sure the scene is safe, there is no point in becoming another casualty!

29. Response Arriving at the Scene Your first instinct should always be to assess, use the abbreviations D.R.A.B. R • Check to see if the casualty, or casualties, are conscious

30. Airway Arriving at the Scene Your first instinct should always be to assess, use the abbreviations D.R.A.B. A • Airway maintenance is the most important skill in First Aid

32. SAFE Approach Some people prefer to us the SAFE approach instead of DRAB, what Is S.A.F.E Approach? Shout for help Assess the scene Free from danger Evaluate

33. Assessing the Scene Are there any fire risks, such as leaking petrol? Are there any vehicles displaying ADR labels? If so, are the containers leaking? How many people are involved? Are any children involved? They can easily be over looked Are you at risk of other vehicles colliding with you?

34. Identifying your location Smart phones – incorporate GPS mapping Road signage (junction numbers) Emergency telephones (roadside) Sat Nav.

36. In the event of a collision, contact the emergency services immediately In the case of injuries always request the Ambulance Service In the event of casualties Police are automatically diverted to the scene Paramedics receive live updates on route to the accident location whilst you are talking to the operator.

37. Information Relay On calling 999 or 112, what information could you be asked for? Your name / vehicle details The location of the accident (try to be specific) Details of the casualty if you can Is there risk of fire Are there any chemicals (ADR) vehicles involved Is there risk from further collision – they relay information to the Highway Agency to close the motorway / road Try to give as much detail of the injuries sustained by the casualty and if anyone is trapped Do not PANIC – once you have issued your location a Ambulance is immediately allocated to the incident.

38. Accidents Involving Hazardous Goods If you can see leakage stay away from the vehicle, follow the drivers instruction at all times until the emergency services arrive Instruct people who can to move to a safe distance If you can see warning labels relay the information on them to the emergency services Do not use any form of ignition i.e. smoking this can cause a Bleve (a tanker explosion) Be mindful of vapour not just the liquid (there can be 1000 times more vapour than visible liquid) far more dangerous Try to stand upwind to reduce the affect of any vapour inhalation (cryogenic gases can freeze lungs in a fraction of a second) If the driver has been injured only approach the vehicle after assessing the risk.
