, DEFINITION: this is the initial
assistance or treatment given to
someone injured or suddenly ill.
Thisis done before the person
receives specialized care in a
health facility.
, Emergencies can happen to anyone, anywhere.
Before you can give help, however, you must be
able to recognize an emergency.
You may realize that an emergency has occurred
only if you become aware of unusual noises,
sights, odors and appearances or behaviors.

danger.
