Learn
It is very important that you take a course in first aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). This lesson does not replace that course. This lesson only provides a brief introduction to keeping children safe when they are injured.

Other injuries require immediate medical attention. You must be able to tell the difference between the two. You must be prepared to respond during any situation. Consider these examples:
您的设施和教室设计用于在发生事故时将风险降至最低。例如,经过适当检查的游乐场设备和缓冲的坠落区,使西蒙不太可能在滑梯坠落中受重伤。你教的安全规则使孩子们在高速行驶时相互碰撞的可能性降低。即使在最好的情况下,事故也会发生。你必须准备好面对大大小小的伤害。
有些伤害很小,只需要轻微的急救。例如,当Dante皮革膝盖时,他的照顾者可能会通过清洁伤口,涂抹绷带并完成事件报告来响应。丹特能够继续玩。
其他伤害是严重的,但没有生命威胁。例如,麦迪逊和西蒙隆可能需要医疗治疗,但它们不太可能面临永久性残疾或死亡。
有些伤害是危及生命,需要立即医疗。例如,Luke的事故与移动的车辆,Luis'摄入身份不明的药片,米莉的窒息都可能导致严重伤害或死亡。作为儿童发展专业人士,您必须能够识别这些情况并适当回应。
