Suspected Spinal Injury: First Aid Awareness

A fall from height, a diving accident or a road collision can damage the spine, and moving the casualty the wrong way could make it worse. This course explains how to recognise a possible spinal injury, keep the head and neck still, call for help, and – crucially – why breathing and CPR always come first.
