First aid is an essential skill for everyone to learn, but many people never get around to doing so. It can be difficult to find the time to learn and is often not at the front of minds, even though it helps save lives.
Learning first aid helps us give assistance to not only other humans but our pets, too. However, new research has indicated that the majority of pet parents in the UK don’t know how to perform basic first aid in an emergency despite its importance. This includes treating minor injuries as well as identifying problems, such as knowing the signs of cardiac arrest.
