Abstract
In recent years, the issue of workplace safety and first aid has become increasingly important. With rapidly advancing technology, an increasingly fast pace of life, and a growing number of industrial and domestic injuries, the need for high-quality and accessible medical care is undeniable. Situations arise daily that require emergency medical care to preserve a person’s life and health, including sudden loss of consciousness accompanied by convulsions or circulatory arrest, injuries resulting from traffic accidents, drowning, and other conditions and accidents. Having first aid skills in the immediate vicinity of such situations and potentially participating in first aid allows people to take the necessary measures to save the lives and health of victims before receiving medical attention. Providing first aid to a victim by someone present at the scene of an incident before the arrival of an ambulance or medical professional not only significantly increases the chances of survival, but also improves the effectiveness of subsequent medical care, as well as reduces the incidence of disability, the duration of temporary disability, and the financial costs of treatment and rehabilitation.
