First Aid is designed to help you follow the right procedures in an emergency medical situation, or support others who are doing so. Using short texts, pictures, and links to some nicely produced YouTube videos, this app explains how to deal with almost every imaginable emergency, from allergic reactions to poisoning and even electrocution.
