 What I Need to Know

First aid is the provision of initial care for an illness or injury. It is usually
performed by a non-expert person to a sick or injured person until appropriate
medical treatment can be accessed in a hospital or by going to a doctor. Certain
self-limiting illnesses or minor injuries may not require further medical care after
the first aid intervention. It generally consists of a series of simple and in some
cases, potentially life-saving techniques that an individual can be trained to
perform with minimal equipment.
The first id training, therefore, is of value in both preventing and treating sudden
illness or accidental injury and in caring for large number of persons caught in a
natural disaster. It is a measure both for self-help as well as for the help of others.

Learning Competencies:
The learner….
➢ Develop an emergency plan involving personnel. SP_SFA11-Is-t-9

➢ Recognizes the value of safety, injury prevention and management in sports

and exercises settings for prompt and proper response during emergencies.
SP_SFA11-Ia-t-10

YOUR TARGETS

At the end of the module, you should be able to:

1. Distinguish injury prevention and management in sports and exercises.
2. Demonstrate proper response during emergencies.
3. Make an emergency plan.
4. Value appropriate procedures during disaster and emergencies in sports,
exercises and recreational activities.

 What’s New

Directions: Read and understand the paragraph. Answer briefly the questions below.

Emergency preparedness for athletic events is essential. A written

emergency plan should be including a list of the members of the medical team;
the responsibilities of each person on the team; and the means of
communication between those persons, including the emergency medical
technicians covering athletes’ events. The staff at the hospital to which injured
athletes will be transported, and the members of the athletic department. Prior
to any competition, the medical person in charge should be certain all needed
response equipment is available, assess the safety of the playing field and the
players’ protective equipment, and ensure that adequate fluids are available for
consumption during the competition. In addition, the medical cards of each
athlete should be reviewed; weather reports should be checked for inclement
weather, and the availability of a working phone should be verified. Being
prepared, before practice or competition begins, ensures that prompt
appropriate care will be provided for injured or ill athletes.
1. Is emergency preparedness for athletic events important? Why?
2. What should be the contents of an emergency plan?
3. What practices/actions should be done before sports events begins?

What is It
Emergency Action Plan
• Emergency Response Procedure/Emergency Action Plan (EAP)

For the schools and the

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Community_eme
rgency_response_team
community (and in other institution),
the presence of first aid kits,
emergency numbers and phones,
and equipment should not be the
end of their emergency response.
They should set procedures on how
to response to injuries or
emergencies. These procedures are
standard ways of responding to
emergencies.
These procedures make up what is
called an Emergency Action Plan
(EAP). It is a plan developed for

3
immediate implementation whenever the need arises, providing appropriate standards
of emergency care to all present. The EAP usually include the following:
1.Emergency Personnel – detailed First Aid arrangements for on-site emergencies;
may consist
of teachers, physicians and nurses, athletic coaches, security and maintenance
personnel
(for schools), or community leaders, homeowners’ association president, etc.
(for community)

2. Emergency Communication – emergency numbers, phones/two-way radio, public

announcement (PA) system

3. Emergency Equipment – first aid kit, wheelchair, spine board, stretcher, blankets,
poles, etc.

4. Medical Transportation – confirmation of local ambulance (c/o PRC), Basic Life

Support, etc.

5. Non-medical Transportation – wheelchairs, stretcher, etc.

6. Emergency Contact List – clinic, local hospital, etc.

7. Venue Information – transportations, identified entrance, exits, and access routes

School personnel (e.g. teachers, security and maintenance personnel) and

community leaders know, understand, and follow these procedures every time an
emergency happens because it is standardized. These procedures are usually laid out
in writing so that personnel crucial in the emergency response are notified and that
immediate attention is given.

In the community, it is advisable to form a community emergency response

team which will be the emergency personnel in your EAP. It is advisable that the
members of the community know who forms this emergency response team.

You may not know all the procedures of your school and community on
responding to emergencies. However, what is important is you know who to notify in
case an emergency happens. The most immediate personnel you need to notify in
case you are in your school especially in the gym are the PE teachers or any teacher
present, maintenance personnel, or security personnel.

Part of the services that the school and community should offer is training their
personnel and community leaders in emergency responses. This is expected since
the effectiveness of emergency response greatly relies on the knowledge and skills of
school personnel and community leaders in first aid and other emergency responses.

The Philippine Red Cross (PRC) is the national branch of the International Red
Cross that cares for the wounded, sick, and homeless and now, providing help during
and following natural disasters. PRC gives training on basic life support,
cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), first aid, and many more. The school and

4
community should set a schedule with PRC volunteers who can impart the necessary
knowledge, training, and certifications to equip them in times of emergency and
disasters.

Once certified, school personnel and community leaders should be able to

respond to injuries and emergencies. However, certification should be renewed yearly
or every two years, depending on the type of certification.

BENEFITS OF HAVING AN EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN

• Risk management strategy: lead to prevention of athletic injury

• Readily prepared for emergency situations
• Ensures that appropriate care is provided in a timely manner
• Decrease chance of legal action taking place
• Protects liability of ATC and school administration
• Leads to a more effective emergency response
