The thought of your child being unconscious or injured after an accident is enough to chill the heart of any parent. We all like to think we could handle an emergency: stay calm, dial 999 and offer first aid. But what if your child was badly burned or had swallowed bleach? Would you know how to treat electrocution or choking?
Every year in Great Britain more than a million children under 15 need emergency treatment after an accident in or around the home. Thousands are disfigured or disabled.
Simple safety measures include never leaving matches around, locking away poisons and keeping a first-aid box of bandages and dressings.
Organizations such as The Red Cross and St. John Ambulance run first-aid courses aimed specifically at parents and covering home emergencies. You could also commit to memory some simple self-help measures.
You should immediately apply firm pressure on bleeding wounds, pour cold water on burns and keep possible fracture still. With electrocution, you should turn off any power source or knock the electrical item out of the victims hand with a tool (a broom handle) while standing on a dry surface that wont conduct a current.

Emergency
In the USA over 20 million people call for emergency medical assistance every year. There are over 750, 000 emergency service workers, including dispatchers, paramedics, doctors, nurses, and fire and police personnel. Many areas have a centralized emergency response number, such as the 911 system, for anyone who needs emergency assistance for a police, fire, or medical problem. This system routes calls and often identifies where the call came from. Sometimes the emergency dispatchers know where you are and can send help even if you are unable to give your location.
Much of what the fire department does has little to do with fire. The fire department plays a central role in an emergency medical system. In many areas, firefighters have special emergency medical training, and a fire engine will be the first emergency vehicle on the scene of an illness or injury. Because they respond to both fires and emergency medical calls, fire engines carry all the medical supplies and equipment that a firefighters-EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) may need.
Medical emergencies may include bites, bleeding, burns, choking, drug overdoses, fainting, heart attacks, and poisons. Fire department personnel treat people at the scene of problem. However, if transportation is required to a hospital or other medical facility, an ambulance will often be called. Fire department services are always paid for with tax dollars and no fee to the person receiving the service. Ambulances, on the other hand, are usually operated by private businesses and can be very expensive to use.
