Accidents happen more often than you think. Every year in China, 3,200,000 people die in accidents. Experts say that the 10 minutes after an accident can make the difference between life and death. This is why learning first aid (急救) is so necessary.

They include keeping the person safe from harm, paying attention to their pain, and getting help either by telling other people or calling 120. Basic first aid training teaches you how to deal with emergencies, treat things like burns, bleeding and broken bones. It takes as little as two hours to learn these skills.

You can learn first aid by visiting the official website of China First Aid Training (http://www.chrctc.org.cn/). You can read books or watch videos that can be found on free apps like First Aid Guide. Some hospitals also give courses or even hold first aid camps for kids.
