What is the procedure for giving first aid to a child who is injured and their parents are not around?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It varies: I am not sure if the question is about whether the child is to be "touched" for help when his parents are not around, or the type of help he needs based on emergency. If a child is in emergency and his parents are not around, the child must be helped before his parents are contacted. The type of emergency will mandate the care the child needs. Chocking - mouth sweep +/- heimlich, etc.
