Electric Shock First Aid Awareness

An electric shock can stop the heart, cause deep burns and throw a person off balance. The first rule is not to become a second casualty. This course explains how to make the scene safe, break contact with a low-voltage source, keep clear of high-voltage hazards, give first aid for burns and cardiac arrest, and get the right help.
