Every first aid situation starts the same way — before you can help, you need to stay calm and take the right first steps. This track covers the fundamentals that come before any specific skill: how to check a scene for danger before you approach, how and when to call emergency services, and what information to give them. You will learn the primary check — is the person responsive, are they breathing — and why this order matters. You will also learn what belongs in a basic first aid kit and when to act immediately versus wait for help. By the end you will know exactly how to start.

When someone stops breathing, seconds matter, and this track prepares you to act instead of freeze.

Finally, you will learn how to recognize and respond to choking, including the Heimlich maneuver, for both adults and children. By the end you will know exactly what to do.

Most injuries people face are not dramatic emergencies, but they still deserve the right care, and this track teaches you exactly that. You will learn how to clean and dress a basic cut so it heals well and avoids infection, and the steps for controlling serious bleeding using direct pressure and proper technique. You will learn how to recognize and treat burns of different severities, and the right first response for sprains and strains, including rest and support. You will also learn to tell the difference between an injury you can handle yourself and one that needs stitches or a trip to urgent care.

Some emergencies are medical rather than injury-based, and recognizing them fast can save a life.
