What to know, what to do...

First Aid is a voluntary activity.

• A person need not engage in the delivery of care to another, but chooses to do so of their own volition.
• No employer or organization can compel the provision of emergency care.
• Notification of need, notifying a supervisor or calling 911, may be required of an employee.

Before providing First Aid to a victim, the victim must consent to receive care

• Who you are, what you plan to do, what training you have
• If victim is unconscious, you have ‘implied consent’ and may proceed
• If victim is a child without parent present, you have ‘implied consent’ and may proceed. If parent is present, you must have consent from the parent.

Information disclosed or discovered during first aid treatment

• is confidential information
• should be communicated only to the emergency personnel who respond for care
• should NOT be documented in accident report forms, if not relevant to the accident itself
