first aid during fire :
==>Protect your own safety at all times
==> For all burns apply cold running (tap) water for at least 20 minutes
==> If running water not available, wet 2 cloths and alternate them onto the burn every 2 minutes
==> Do NOT use ice, butter, creams, etc.
==> Remove clothing and jewellery as they can hold heat on the burn and jewellery can stop blood flow to the burn.
2.first aid during earthquake:
==> inspect for leaks by smell only and do not use lit candles or matches. Do not turn on electrical switches or appliances. If you smell gas, shut off the main valve and open all windows and doors.
==> If electricity and water lines are damaged move fast and turn off the system at the main fuse box or valve. Do not turn on gas or electricity again until the utility company has inspected your home.
==> Turn on a portable or car radio for emergency news bulletins and instructions. Restrict telephone use to medical, fire or public safety emergencies. Clean up spilled medicines, flammable liquids, bleaches and chemicals.
