Year 9 Health and Social Care students have been learning first aid as part of their ‘Basic life support’ unit.

Students were exploring what can go wrong with body systems and organs to cause a lack of response. This was followed by a practical where they learnt how to place the unresponsive casualty, who is breathing normally, into the recovery position. Then to know when and how to deliver CPR to an unresponsive casualty who is not breathing.

Great work Year 9!
