100 Days of First Aid - Day 4: Airway! 🌬️
Next up in our DRSABCD series is 'A' for Airway.
Once you’ve checked for a response and sent for help, you need to make sure the casualty’s airway is clear. Gently tilt their head back and lift the chin: this opens the airway and helps them breathe.
Quick check: Look inside the mouth. If you see any blockages (like food or fluids), roll them onto their side to clear it out.
Keeping it simple and hands-on is how we do things at Yatson Training. No dry PowerPoint slides here!
