"Do it anyways." - Take a minute and watch this video. A few of the biggest lessons I try to instill in my students (mostly my EMTs-in-training, but I also speak on these things when I teach basic first aid). 1. Patient rapport. 2. You are the best medicine besides actual medicine. 3. You are showing up on someone's worst day, be kind. Sometimes people forget that because we are in the business of people, that it is also the business of helping people. How we treat people is a reflection of who we are, our training, our mentors, our company, our department ... but most importantly how we handle emergencies can help heal or cause our patients more or less pain. #BeKind https://lnkd.in/gJWTF7s8

🩹🚨 Knowing how to respond to a stroke can be a life-saving skill! Follow these key steps to provide immediate first aid treatment: 1️⃣ Recognise the Signs: Identify facial weakness, arm weakness, and speech difficulties. If you notice any of these symptoms, it's crucial to act quickly. 2️⃣ Emergency Services: Dial 999 (or 112) immediately. Time is of the essence in stroke cases, and prompt medical assistance is essential. 3️⃣ Comfort and Reassure: Stay with the person. Keep them calm and reassure them while waiting for professional help to arrive. 4️⃣ Positioning: If the person is conscious, help them sit down in a comfortable position. Ensure their head and shoulders are supported. 5️⃣ Avoid Food or Drink: Don't give them anything to eat or drink. This precaution is necessary as swallowing may be compromised during a stroke. Remember, early intervention can significantly impact the outcome in stroke cases.
