Using First Aid in the Real World

Have you used first aid to care for a victim of a medical emergency? Did you have an interesting experience in a first aid class? Are you a professional rescuer? About.com First Aid aims to give readers the tools to help in minor to major medical emergencies. We want to hear about those emergencies. We also want to hear about learning first aid.

Without giving identifying information, share your stories of first aid. From providing it to learning about it, and from humorous to serious, tell us how first aid affected you.

We'll edit and publish some of the best stories here on the Tales from the Street page. You will not receive confirmation of your submission, so please check the Tales from the Street page to see if your story has been published.
