On the 6th day of NSS Camp, a hands-on session on first aid and basic life support was conducted by Dr. Manender Kumar MBBS from Fortis hospital, Ludhiana. It focused on how to provide first aid in wounds, bleeding, musculoskeletal injury, burns, poisoning, bites, drowning, fainting, seizures, and unconsciousness. He also familiarised the volunteers about recognition of signs of sudden cardiac arrest, heart attack, stroke and how to tackle such a situation. Proper first aid always comes across as a big respite when handling different health and medical emergencies. Besides saving the injured person’s life, it helps make the recovery process faster, saves huge healthcare costs, and prevents the likelihood of injury from getting worse.
