Asthma is a reactive airway illness in which a person has repeated shortness of breath, characterized by wheezing and coughing. A mild asthma attack is not a health emergency and can be managed by the casualty. A severe asthma attack can be fatal and require immediate first aid, as the person’s airway can spasm, swell, and secrete thick mucus, which narrows the airway passage. First Aid for a severe asthma attack: 1. Perform a scene survey and a primary survey; send for medic...al help. 2. Place the casualty in the most comfortable position for breathing. This is usually sitting upright with arms resting on a table. 3. Help the casualty take prescribed medication. 4. Give ongoing casualty care. 5. If the unconscious casualty stops breathing, begin CPR.

Take a moment and honour those who give their lives to keep us safe. We are so grateful for all those who sacrificed so much for our country. #Remembranceday #LestWeForget In Flanders fields the poppies blow between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly... Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders Fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields. by John McCrae See more
