A vast number of accidents, many resulting in injury or even death, occur in and around the home. This program describes the main types of harmful accidents that can take place in a residence and how the ensuing injuries should be treated. Viewers learn specific steps for what to do in a household emergency, including how to perform the DRABCD procedure and how to deal with burns, scalds, electrocution, cuts, laceration, bleeding, poisoning, and overdoses. Information on asthma, allergies, anaphylaxis, heart attack, stroke, diabetes, and epilepsy is also provided. The video presents clear verbal and visual information as it portrays various scenarios within a home where immediate first aid intervention is required. Produced in Australia.
