WORLD FIRST AID DAY 2023

World First Aid Day 2023 will have the theme "First Aid in the Digital World." The subject for this year urges us to investigate how digital technologies and resources, like as smartphone apps, internet films, virtual reality simulations, and telemedicine, might be used to offer first aid help and education.

First aid refers to the initial medical care that a patient receives. It could be a result of an injury, cut, or pain. First aid is important since it has a life-saving purpose. Before seeking out a professional for additional care, it might assist patients in receiving the initial treatment. The purpose of World First Aid Day is to raise awareness of the value of first aid and how it can give victims of injuries the basic care they require.

A young merchant named Henry Dunant was appalled by the widespread slaughter that took place at the battle of Solferino in 1859, and he assisted many of the injured in their recovery. He was so affected by the occurrence that he created a book called A Memory of Solferino in which he discussed his experiences.

On this day, organisations join forces to spread the word about the value of first aid services and how it may save lives. Pain is lessened and long-term harm is avoided with first aid. It also facilitates recuperation.
