Anything that happens unexpectedly and by chance; affecting the health of persons can be called as an accident. Accident as it means can happen any time, at any place and can be of varying severity. Its severity may vary from minor skin abrasions but associated with elevated heart beating due to fear upto sudden death of the victim. Between these two extremities a victim may suffer from variety of afflictions; that need immediate help to make him comfortable.The help he needs may vary from simple encouraging words upto sustaining victim’s breating by resuscitation that saves his life.
Thus, ‘first aid’ is a kind of treatment given to accident victim quickly and corrected, while waiting for the doctor to come. It is never intended to replace qualified professional care.
