Create a short Power Point covering one of the situations of emergency/injury with the four questions listed below. (You choose which situation to address).

Title your thread a summary of your emergency (2-5 words) for example, "Stomach hurts/possible poison" or "Fell off monkey bars"

Please note that the name of the ailment has not been included in the scenario, because a teacher would not necessarily be told the ailment when it happens.  Research the symptoms, in many cases, it will explain what the ailment is and how to treat it.

• Slide 1: Copy the scenario below for slide 1, with the student's name
• Also Slide 1: Please designate if your situation (hypothetically) happened in a child care setting (probably no nurse on site) or an elementary school setting (possibly a nurse on site).
• What is the teacher's role? (assume there is no school nurse)
• What is done to assess for signs of injury? 
• What universal precautions are used? (See Chapter 8 in your book for Universal Precautions)
• After the immediate situation is under control, what should the teacher do next?
