Communication and Casualty Care

Effective communication and casualty care involve reassuring and supporting the injured person, assessing their condition, and delivering appropriate first aid treatment.

Performing CPR on adults involves chest compressions and rescue breaths, and an AED should be used as soon as available to help restore a normal heart rhythm.

Managing bleeding involves applying direct pressure to the wound, using sterile dressings to control blood loss, and keeping the injured person calm and still.
