| First Aid in armed conflicts and other situations of violence free pdf manual /Manual en pdf Primeros auxilios en conflictos armados y otras situaciones de violencia |
A practical manual presenting the specific knowledge, skills and practices that First Aiders should have to act safely and effectively when caring for people caught up in armed conflicts and other situations of violence, such as internal disturbances and tensions.
Built on
the field experiences of the ICRC and of others, it demonstrates how
prompt administration of life-saving and stabilizing measures can
prevent death, complications and disability, and result in better and
easier surgery. It also explains that is not enough for First Aiders to
be experienced in helping the sick and the wounded; they must understand
the significance of the distinctive emblems, the Fundamental Principles
of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, and their
rights and duties in armed conflicts as laid down in the Geneva
Conventions and their Additional Protocols.
The manual is accompanied by a CD ROM which can be used as a resource for information on the Movement and its work in this area including key publications and documents. It also includes useful pocket-sized cards presenting essentials on important first aid topics.

FOREWORD
First
Aid is not simply performing artificial respiration, bandaging a wound
or taking an injured person to hospital. It is also taking someone’s
hand, reassuring the frightened, giving a bit of one’s self. In armed
conflicts and other situations of violence, First Aiders take the risk
of suffering harm from such dangers as gunfire, collapsing buildings,
burning cars, unstable rubble and tear gas. They step forward to help
the wounded when the most natural reflex would be to run the other way.
Ultimately, providing First Aid puts one’s self on the line, for no one
comes out of these close encounters with others, in times of crisis,
unscathed. First Aiders have enriching experiences, it is true, but they
must sometimes cope with despair, when – despite their best efforts,
despite all their skill – the breath of life they have struggled to
maintain slips away. Through their commitment, their selflessness and
willingness to expose themselves to possible physical and psychological
harm, First Aiders demonstrate their humanity in the fullest sense of
the term, and we owe them an immense debt of gratitude – all the more so
because they frequently perform their tasks away from the “limelight”,
seeking not to be recognized but only to help others thereby giving
added meaning to their lives.
Turning to the ideals of
the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, there is a
particular meaning attached to providing First Aid in situations of
violence. It is in keeping with the humanist vision of a world in which
the dignity of an enemy deserves as much respect as that of a friend or
indeed as one’s own dignity. The gesture is disinterested. It carries no
political meaning or message, although it may have a political impact
when it symbolizes international solidarity. He or she who dresses the
wounds of another, listens and offers renewed hope, is not defending a
cause. First Aiders are impartial, neutral, independent and not prompted
by desire for gain. Above all, they are humane, as was Henry Dunant,
the Movement’s very first First Aid worker, on the battlefield in
Solferino in 1859. Let us recall the words he used to describe what he
felt as he surveyed the scene: “The feeling one has of one’s own utter
inadequacy in such extraordinary and solemn circumstances is
inexpressible.”
It would be a mistake to see in a
First Aider nothing more than a local actor in the dramatic events
unfolding around him, be it an armed conflict, a violent street
demonstration or a natural disaster. The significance of what First
Aiders do is universal: not only because they belong to a Movement that
carries out relief work all over the world but also because every day
their actions create bonds that triump h over differences, prejudice and
intolerance. First Aiders do not live in a world where “civilizations
clash” with one another, in a Manichean universe in which everyone must
take sides. To be sure, First Aiders have their own ideas, political
opinions, secular or religious convictions, and identities, but they
succeed in transcending them. And they build bridges. Such feats are not
within everyone’s reach.
First Aiders are there when
you need them, and they steadfastly remain by your side. They do what
they can to prevent emergencies through awareness-raising, training
activities and vaccination campaigns. At the same time, they prepare
themselves to swing into action in the event that an emergency does
occur and to rally others to join with them. In crisis situations they
interrupt their everyday lives and take selfless action without concern
for the time or energy involved. Yet, they are well compensated for
their personal sacrifices before, during and after a crisis by what they
receive from the men, women and children in difficulty whose paths they
cross and with whom they remain for as long as it takes to ease their
pain and soothe them in their distress.
Because of all
that they represent, all that they do and all that they are, the men
and women who become First Aiders bring us comfort at a time when people
fight in a bid to secure power or material goods, in the name of
beliefs or ideologies, in pursuit of nationalist interests, and for so
many other reasons. All these spirals of violence combine to leave us
vulnerable, frightened, stunned and shocked. We find it hard to believe
in mankind, to hope for a better world for our children, to look forward
to the future that will be theirs. We almost feel guilty about leaving
them such a legacy of danger and violence.
And then
our paths cross those of a First Aider, on the battlefield, in a riot,
in our street or simply on a television screen, and we are moved. We adm
ire their resourcefulness and are impressed by their quickness and
skill. We are filled with concern when we see their features drawn with
fatigue, their spattered faces and their bruised hands. Hope returns.
First Aiders leave their mark of humanity not only on the lives of the
sick and wounded but also, in a certain way, on ours.

tienen en conflictos armados, conforme a lo establecido en los Convenios
de Ginebra y sus Protocolos adicionales.
