Basic First Aid Training
Make basic first aid training mandatory in schools. All children should be taught how to save a life in the event of an emergency, like choking or to give CPR.
Why is this important?
A child could be the only person available to be able to save your life, without any basic knowledge you chances of survival are slim. A small child simply rolling you onto your side, if you are unconscious and vomiting, can give you a better chance of surviving. So many adults don’t know how to react in an emergency, don’t let the same be said for our children.
