Never hold down a person having a seizure. Instead, clear the area and protect their head while allowing the seizure to pass.

Laying the person flat and elevating their legs improves circulation and helps restore normal blood flow to the brain.

If a person is unable to speak or cough, perform the Heimlich maneuver (abdominal thrusts) to help expel the obstruction.

Cold water is effective, but ice-cold water or direct ice application can cause further damage to the tissue.

Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas, making it extremely dangerous.

A person in cardiac arrest will be unresponsive, have no pulse, and will not be breathing normally.

Running cool (not ice-cold) water over a minor burn for several minutes helps reduce heat and prevent further tissue damage.

Frostbite should be treated by gradually warming the affected area using warm water (not hot) and seeking medical help.

If someone is choking and unable to breathe, the first step is to ask if they need help. If they cannot respond, perform abdominal thrusts (Heimlich maneuver).

Compressions should be at least 2 inches (5 cm) deep to effectively circulate blood.

CPR is only performed if a person is unresponsive AND not breathing. If they are breathing, monitor them until help arrives.

CPR should begin immediately for a drowning victim who is unresponsive and not breathing to restore oxygen circulation.

The first priority in treating a deep open wound is to apply direct pressure to control bleeding before cleaning and dressing the wound.

Diabetic emergencies can cause confusion, dizziness, sweating, and shakiness due to abnormal blood sugar levels.

Do NOT push the bone back in. Instead, cover the area with a sterile dressing and immobilize the limb while waiting for emergency help.

Animal bites should be cleaned with soap and water, and medical help should be sought to assess infection risk.

A hypothermic person should be rewarmed gradually using dry blankets and warm fluids. Rapid warming can cause shock.

Never place anything in a person's mouth during a seizure. Instead, clear the area around them and let the seizure pass.

Cold therapy (ice) is recommended for the first 24-48 hours to reduce swelling and pain. Heat can worsen swelling early on.

Applying direct pressure to a wound is the most effective way to stop severe bleeding.

For adult CPR, hands should be placed in the center of the chest, on the lower half of the sternum.

Moving the person to a cool environment and providing fluids helps reduce body temperature gradually.

Wild animal bites carry a high risk of rabies or infection and should always be examined by a medical professional.

The recommended compression rate is 100-120 compressions per minute.

Never remove an embedded object from a wound. It may be stopping severe bleeding. Apply pressure around the object and seek emergency care.

An AED is used when a person is unresponsive and has no pulse. It delivers a shock only if needed.

For mild allergic reactions, an antihistamine like diphenhydramine (Benadryl) can help reduce symptoms.

Carbon monoxide poisoning is life-threatening, and the first step is to move the victim to fresh air immediately.

If you suspect a heart attack, the first step is to call 911 immediately. Early treatment can prevent serious damage or death.

Flushing the eye with water for at least 15 minutes helps remove the chemical and prevent further damage.

To check if someone is breathing, look for chest movement, listen for breath sounds, and feel for air movement on your cheek.

A person with a spinal injury should not be moved unless absolutely necessary. Keep them still and stabilize their head and neck.

Carbon monoxide poisoning prevents oxygen from binding to red blood cells, leading to suffocation and organ failure.

Signs of heat stroke include confusion, hot/dry skin, and rapid pulse. Unlike heat exhaustion, the victim does NOT sweat.

If an inhaler does not relieve an asthma attack, call 911 immediately, as the attack may become life-threatening.

If a nosebleed lasts longer than 10 minutes, seek medical attention as it could indicate a more serious problem.

Frostbitten areas should be warmed slowly using warm water (not hot) to avoid further damage.

You should always handle a knocked-out tooth by the crown, NOT the root, to protect its delicate tissues for reattachment.

Tilting the head back can cause blood to flow into the throat and airway. Instead, the person should lean forward and pinch their nostrils.

Pinching the nostrils and leaning forward helps stop bleeding while preventing blood from flowing into the throat.

Clean the wound with soap and water and seek medical attention, as human bites can introduce harmful bacteria.

Asthma inhalers should be used when symptoms appear, not only when a person is unconscious. Delaying treatment can be dangerous.

A concussion can have delayed symptoms, so the person should be monitored closely and should avoid activities that worsen their condition.

If an allergic reaction affects breathing, administer an EpiPen if available and call 911 immediately.

You should call Poison Control immediately for instructions instead of trying to induce vomiting, which can make the situation worse.

Tilting the head back can cause blood to go down the throat. Instead, the person should lean forward and pinch their nostrils.

Common symptoms of poisoning include nausea, vomiting, confusion, and difficulty breathing.

Applying ice directly to a burn can cause further tissue damage. Instead, use cool (not ice-cold) running water.

Keeping the head and neck still is crucial to prevent further spinal damage.

Third-degree burns destroy nerve endings, which may result in no pain. However, they are the most severe and require medical treatment.
