WELCOME 🤗🤗



🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🌹🌹
Good day, and a big welcome to my blog.

Have you ever been in an emergency situation and had no idea about what to do, or how to help those affected?

Well, I know what it takes to be there.

I was once involved in a Road Traffic Accident, there was a head-on collision with a Lexus car and there were lots of Casualties on the scene including me.

       I sustained a pelvic fracture and ankle fracture, some had neck fractures, some had a dislocation and some were unconscious.
 Lots of injuries everywhere, and I was also unconscious. The moment I regained consciousness and I learned that we lost 3 people.

   Eyewitness testimony says "People were shouting and praying but no one was able to administer First Aid."

I felt heartbroken, I felt terrible, and that was when I realized the danger in people lacking the knowledge of First Aid. 

         I have considered it a goal to achieve that everyone knows first aid.

A mentor once said "Consider yourself a potential Casualty if no one around you knows First Aid"

HOW TO MANAGE/ TREAT BLEEDING.

 HOW TO MANAGE BLEEDING.  The first thing is to check for your safety. Protect yourself, are you safe? Will I be at risk if I help this person? Will I be harmed if I leave my car to help this person on the roadside? May a person not become a victim of kidnap because he wants to help another person. 😩😩  If you are safe, then you can proceed to help the casualty. Do manage bleeding quickly and without panic. Please, note that you must protect yourself from transmittable diseases and infections. Like HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis B, e.t.c Make use of gloves (Neat nylon if there are no gloves) Face mask but if there is none, you are still good to go.

I have seen people shout, slap, or punch those who are helping them because they are in pain and distress. Source: pixabay Yes, just be patient with them. Keep givi...

BLEEDING 2

 It's a new month and a season of love.  Welcome to February!💕💕💕💕💕 What is the point of having a lover who can not administer first aid, my words still remain "NO CPR, NO MARRIAGE".  Yes, you read that correctly. Imagine gisting with your partner and one of you loses consciousness, will the person survive? will you be able to help or get help? YOU DON'T WANT YOUR HEART BLEEDING LIKE IN THE IMAGE ABOVE.  PLEASE, LEARN FIRST AID! IT MAKES YOU FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE WON A GRAMMY AWARD. From our last post, the answer to the assessment is Venous Bleeding. CLASSIFICATION OF BLEEDING. Bleeding can be classified into two; 1. Internal Bleeding: This bleeding is often caused by trauma resulting from internal organ damage, medical illnesses, and bleeding into body cavities or tissue spaces. This type of bleeding cannot be easily controlled as it can not be easily noticed in some cases. the best first aid treatment you can administer is immediately taking the person to the hos...

Turning Pain into Purpose: My Journey from Accident to Advocacy.

One's life can change in an instant. For me, that moment came with an accident I witnessed the fragility of life and death, which taught me the priority of first aid firsthand.  An accident so severe that it left me not only with physical injury but also profoundly aware of the importance of first aid awareness. During my recovery, I was filled with the guilt that I was at an accident scene and I could not assist with first aid.                                                   I wasn't entirely at fault, I was also a casualty who was unconscious but responsive till we were moved to a different vehicle to convey us to the University Teaching Hospital (UITH), Ilorin. The accident was so fatal that we lost 3 people to the accident. I sustained multiple fractures. Watching short clips from the accident, I realized how crucial it was for everyone to be equipped ...
