how to treat severe bleeding

This is a sequence of how to stop and treat severe bleeding

We as humans have about 4.7 to 5.5 L of blood so there's not much blood to go around so losing more than half a litre of blood could be life threatening. All types of blood loss could be fatal including a nose bleed!

These are the steps you need to follow to treat severe bleeding.

First, apply pressure to the wound with the person hand for a start then put another item on, it could be a pair of underwear if they are clean, it could be anything as long as it is NOT fluffy and it is clean but don’t put your hand on the person you are treating!

Secondly You need to put a bandage around the wound, to do this you take a bandage and make sure it looks like a happy snail, to make a happy snail you have the bandage roll on top of the bandage, then rape around the wound making sure it is not too tight to know you should only be able to put two fingers in either end of the bandage.

Thirdly you need to phone an ambulance. If you do not have a phone shout for help once someone comes to your aid asked them to call an ambulance and to come back once they do so to know they did phone the ambulance.

Next you need to make sure that they elevate their the wound above the heart so if it is on their leg make them lie down and put their noses in the air because blood is a liquid so it is hard for it to go upwards.

Lastly when the ambulance arrives you need to tell the ambulance crew exactly what you did and what time you found the person bleeding.

Overall these steps are very important and could save someones life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Camp

These are some of the images from the year 7 camp and as you can see we had lot's of fun. Once we arrived at Tekapo we went ice skating and we discovered that the girls are better at ice skating then the boys. The next day we went skiing, skiing was fun because I have been skiing before and some of my friends have been to, it was also funny watching the people that have never skied before doing their lesion, after skiing we went snow tubing which is fun and we went down as a 8 at the end. On the last day we went for a mountain bike ride and then we went to the hot springs for an hour or so. Tekapo was a very fun camp and I would go their again ;)

Another day at work

By Isaac

Woof, it’s time for another day at work. My owner bob puts my colour and lead on, i jump into the car for the drive to the airport and wonder to myself what mind happen today? We arrive at the airport to start another day at work, it’s a very slow morning but just before lunch I smell something, something I haven’t smelt today. I smells like fresh fruit I race after the sent with my owner in tow, we arive at the suspect to find a nice fresh banana.

I sit down to wait for my owner to tell the man what he has done and after I get a delicious dog treat my favorite kind tux wonderdogs. We continue to walk around the airport waiting for another suspect that we can catch red handed.

We go around to the exit to see if anyone has snuck through conrinten and shure enough we find the same man but this time with a kiwifruit in his jacket, man some people just don’t learn do they? I thought to myself.

We walk onto an aircraft to see if anything bad was in the cargo hold and sure enough at the very back I smelt something, something that smelt like an orange, and when we had a closer inspected we found psyllid deep inside the orange. The department of conservacion came racing down to kill the psyllid and to stop it spreading into local area. Once the orange and the psyllid were taken care of I got three tux wonderdogs, like can this day get any better!

Well later I discovered that it can we get called over to NZ post to check a parcel from a place called, Otago? I started sniffing this strange parcel from a strange place and discovered that their was no fresh fruit in the parcel. But about an hour later when the sun was just starting to dip under the horizon, and all of a sudden we get a phone call to say that what was in the parcel turned out to be a decapitated pig's head like who would have ges that!

We got into the car to go home and so I can have some tea and a sleep so I am ready and energised for the next day at work.
