Every person should be trained in first aid.Knowledge of first aid, when properly applied, maymean the difference between life and death, slow orrapid recovery, or temporary injury and permanentdisability. First aid is the immediate care given to aninjured or suddenly ill person. First aid does not takethe place of proper medical treatment. It consists onlyof furnishing temporary assistance until competentmedical care, if needed, is obtained, or until theprognosis for recovery without medical care is assured.Remember that most injuries and illnesses arecorrected with only first aid care. Developing first aidcommon sense is an important part of providing firstaid care.Through the 4-H First Aid Project, members learn basicfirst aid procedures and the important items to haveavailable during an emergency situation (first aid kit),and the best locations for making these items available.The situations and locations include, but are not limitedto, house or home; farm, to include site, buildings, ormachinery; vehicle; vehicle winter survival; sports;summer emergency survival; disaster (emergencypreparedness); or emergency pet supplies.National Poison Control Phone NumberThe National Poison Control Center phone number is1-800-222-1222.National 4-H Curriculum First Aid in Actionsling or bandaging, how to improvise in emergencysituations, how to treat burns, how to stop bleeding,how to take vital signs (temperature, pulse, andrespiration).Note: The following information about educationalposters and displays is excerpted from the State FairBook and is subject to change each year.Educational DisplayThe educational display exhibit introduces the viewerto a subject by displaying an idea or fact.
