Algorithm for conducting practical training in providing first aid to victims in emergency situations

Abstract

At the training center site in the Orenburg Region, the classes with citizens who arrived for recruiting a military unit for territorial defense were held. The classes were organized to acquire knowledge on providing first aid to victims in various emergency situations. During the classes, practical skills in providing first aid in the red, yellow, and green danger zones were developed. The citizens were shown various techniques for evacuating victims to a safe zone. During the practical classes, individual first aid kits – IFAK-3S, martial cloaks, carrying slings, and materials on hand were used. All participants in the training were instructed the rules of applying a tourniquet for external bleeding, methods of immobilizing injured limbs, carrying out anti-shock measures, applying bandages to wounds, and the procedure for evacuating victims to a safe zone on site. The knowledge gained will be the key to the life safety of affected citizens in the emergency zone.
