I found this from a website. Come on, you can write paragraphs out of it. Ideas are tough but writing a para given the ideas is not difficult. If you still want 'em, comment.

Do not hurry, and let them rest as often as they need to. If they get stuck at any time, make them comfortable and call the ambulance.

1. Do NOT try to get the person up straight away!

2. Calm the person and yourself. Get them to take deep slow breaths.

3. Check for injuries. If they are badly injured, such as with a broken bone, they need to stay where they are. Make them as comfortable as possible and call an ambulance. Keep them warm while you wait for the ambulance.

4. If they are not badly injured and feel they could get up, get two sturdy chairs and place one near the person’s head and one near their feet.

5. It is important that the fallen person does the work. The helper should only guide lightly, helping the person to roll onto their side.

6. Help the person to kneel. If they have sore knees, place a towel underneath as cushioning.

7. Place one chair in front of the kneeling person.

8. Ask the person to lean on the seat of the chair and bring one leg forward and put that foot on the floor.

9. Place the second chair behind the person. Ask them to push up with their arms and legs and then sit back in the chair behind them. Guide them up and back into the seat, remembering not to lift them – they should be doing the work. Keep your back upright.

Essentially, you will be writing about the following steps. You must take information from the videos and the articles that are provided for you, as they may have a specific example that they need you to follow and write about. However, this is a generalized way in assisting a victim.

The first thing when you arrive at the scene is to take note of the scene. Is there any spillage or anything that may be out of the ordinary or may be harmful? If there is, leave the area immediately and call for help. The second step, if the first step is safe, is to see if the person is still conscious. Are they responsive? If they are, are they able to focus, or can they not respond to simple questions? (Even though it specifically says that the person is not responsive, this step is still necessary).  The third step is to treat for shock. Lay the person down on the ground, elevate their legs to allow for restricted circulations, and don't allow the person to move unless necessary. the fourth step is to try to stem any bleedings by using either bandages, pressure bandages, or any other clean material that may stop the flow of blood. The fourth step is to record any information regarding the incident. How much did the person bleed? Do you know the cause of the wound? etc. Finally, ensure the person is in safe hands when help arrives.

Remember, you must use the information based on the videos and articles. As it is not provided, I cannot give the specific information that is needed to complete the assignment. Simply follow the format, and write the information that answers most, if not all of the questions. Good luck.
