What is first aid?

First aid is the earliest care given to an injured or sick person. It can be given during an emergency before medical help arrives.

When you’re working as a tradie, understanding first aid is critical. Accidents happen on job sites all the time, and people often need emergency care. Bleeding is a common example, with first aid procedures often implemented before help arrives. If someone on your site unfortunately experiences an accident or injury, early intervention is vital.
