Priorities of Treatment

Imagine you are faced with all of the above injuries at the same time.Who gets priority and why?

- Sort the above into order of priority, put the most serious at the top and the least serious at the bottom.

- You can group injuries of equal severity if needed - You need to be able to justify your answer.

* Stay calm but act swiftly. Ensure the ‘coach in charge’ is aware that an incident / accident has occurred

* The ‘coach in charge’ will observe the situation and make a determination on what action is needed.- The ‘coach in charge’ will decide if the class needs to be stopped.

* The first aider should: (1) Listen to what the injured person is saying. (2) Ask others players who saw the incident / accident for their account of what happened. (3) Use their first aid training to assess any injuries. (4) Treat any minor injuries. (5) Seek help for any serious injuries or those requiring specialist treatment - Call 999 if necessary.

* If the emergency services are required the first aider should ensure they can provide the number of the telephone being used, the venue location, and details of the incident / suspected injuries.

* Players with major injuries should not be moved and should be monitored and comforted until the emergency services arrive.

* If the injured player is a child contact the parent/guardian. Senior players should be asked if they would like an emergency contact calling.

* Complete an incident/accident report form, for any incident / accident where action was taken by a first aider.
