Emergency preparedness means knowing what to do in a lot of unexpected situations.

If everything always went as expected, you wouldn’t need to be prepared for emergencies. But of course, everything doesn’t always go as we would hope. It’s at these times that you’ll want to make sure you’re prepared. You should know how to make right decisions, even in the worst of times.

That might mean having the idea to call 120 and calmly give the operator(接线员) the important information or that might mean performing CPR or using other first-aid(急救) skills. You’ll find that the first-aid knowledge plays a large role in emergency preparedness.

Imagine this scene: you and a fried are mountain biking when you come upon an injured biker who needs your help. Now it is not the time to hesitate(犹豫).

First, find out how serious the injured are. If he’s conscious(神智清醒的), keep him as calm as possible. If the injuries are serious, don’t move the victim. Instead, try to keep him still until help arrives.

If you’re in the middle of nowhere and the victim must be moved to get help, you will need to splint(用夹板固定) any broken bones to help reduce the pain or make a stretcher(担架) out of tree branches and T-shirts. If the biker still cannot be moved, consider sending your friends for help while you stay behind.

Emergency preparedness will teach you how to make right decisions is all kinds of sudden situations. It will also improve your first-aid skills.
