Give each girl a piece of paper and pencil. Lay out the items from the first aid kit in the middle of the group let them look at everything for 3 minutes. Then cover everything up. The girls then have 5 minutes to write down everything they can remember was on the table. Girl with the most items right wins. There are a lot of kits out there, but if you do a lot of camping with your girls check out this 303 piece first aid kit that is great for meeting spaces, camp outs, to use at home, to leave in the car. Bandage Relay Game This game will help reinforce discussions related to bandaging injuries. Put your girls into two teams and have them line up in relay formation. Put one girl at the other end for each team that will become the injured person. The leader will call out a body part and the first girl in line on both teams will run down and bandage that part of the body. When she has completed tasks then she becomes the injured person and the other girl goes back to end of line. Once every girl has gone through and has been the injured person and bandaged that body part, choose a different body part and do it again. For example when I did it with my troop we did arm, leg and head injuries. It is fun plus educational to learn how to bandage correctly. Advanced First Aid Kit If you want to take it a step further beyond the First Aid Activity booklet provided on this site.

Hands Only CPR I had the opportunity to talk to a nurse by the name of Terri Evans who is a RN with over 25 years as a bedside nurse. She teaches CPR to doctors, nurses and other healthcare workers. She also teach daycare workers, the community and community leaders the importance of CPR. If after you read this information and want to talk to her directly about the CPR program or other CPR questions for your girls contact her by email at [email protected], just mention you found her information on the leader connecting leaders website. Everyone needs to know how to get help in case of an Emergency. CPR training will teach you how important it is to get the ambulance to come to the scene and get the person help by taking them to the nearest hospital as quickly as possible. When a victim receives CPR the blood flow continues to pump through their heart and you help to keep the body oxygenated. Which means, your hands become their heartbeat. Now that is the most important thing you can do for someone who needs you. CPR is the most brave thing you can do to help. CPR also helps keep oxygen flowing to the brain which keeps the person from suffering from brain damage or death. Studies show that 88% (which is a lot) of cardiac arrests happens in the home; which is another reason for the importance of knowing CPR training. A person has about ten minutes or less until death without giving CPR. You don’t have to be a doctor or a nurse to receive CPR training; and you can be any age as long as you can understand the direction given in the CPR course. Becoming CPR certified is the most important thing you can do to so HELP someone in case of a Heart Attack Emergency. CPR, if performed immediately and correctly, can double or triple a victim’s chance of the person survival. CPR gives individuals confidence and empower them to use their hands to save a Life! Hands Only CPR save lives. This means that you no longer have to give mouth to mouth breaths to a stranger. Hands Only CPR is just as easy and more effective because people are helping more than they used to help. Someone may need your help immediately, so American Heart Association found research that proved that “Hands Only CPR” was just as good. Hands Only CPR has just two easy steps: If you see a teen or adult suddenly collapse: Call 9-1-1 Push hard and fast in the center of the chest. During CPR you should push on the chest at a rate of 100 to 120 compression per minute. This rate is like the beats in an old song called “Staying Alive” Watch this quick video to learn more about Hands Only CPR. To learn more about CPR and to find a class near you go to American Heart Association website. If you want to take a course at home, Terri Evans, the Registered nurse I had the opportunity to talk to created a CPR course you can do at home. go to Position CPR and learn more about taking this course with your girls if getting to a course in person would not work for you. The best part you don’t pay for course till you pass it. Then you can pay to have your certificate. That way if you find that doing it online instead of going somewhere doesn’t work for your troop you will not pay anything to try it.

Marie K. Hafen, in her recent Women's Conference address, talked about a friend who shared a story with her out of her "Spiritual First-Aid Kit". I love the idea of a Spiritual First-Aid Kit. Stories, quotes, poems, scriptures, etc that you collect to read and remember when life gets hard, when you're spiritually not feeling well, when you're heart has been hurt, when you need a band-aid for your spirit. It can be anything that inspires you or makes you feel good. Clint's grandpa had one of these. He loved to collect inspirational stories and then copy them and send them in letters, birthday cards, Christmas letters, etc to his children and grandchildren. He always seemed to know just what we needed to hear when we needed to hear it. I too hope to be able to carry on this legacy with my children and grandchildren. I've just started to gather "supplies" into my Spiritual First-Aid Kit, but let me give you some examples from it: "Some of the most heart-wrenching, discouraging events in our lives—from which we long to be set free—are actually designed to prepare us with the very skills and understanding [God] needs us to have. As we draw closer to the Lord and put our total trust in Him, in His power, and in His timing, we can leave our fires of affliction more pure, more refined, and with more skills and understanding.” –Wendy W. Nelson “He will guide you in what to do. He will open doors, remove roadblocks, and help you overcome obstacles" —Neil L. Andersen "Live the gospel as conspicuously as you can. Moms and dads can do everything right and yet have children who stray. But even in such painful hours it will be comforting for you to know that your children knew of your abiding faith in Christ, in his true church...It will be comforting then for you to know that if your children choose to leave the straight and narrow way, they leave it very conscious that their parents were firmly in it." Elder Jeffry R. Holland, April 2003 Wayward children Can one righteous young woman change the world? The answer is a resounding “yes!” You have the Holy Ghost as your guide, and He “will show unto you all things… [you] should do” (2 Nephi 32:5). It is the daily, consistent things you do that will strengthen you to be a leader and an example – daily prayer, daily scripture study, daily obedience, daily service to others. - Elaine S. Dalton Severe Mercy (from Sister Hafen's friend's Spiritual First-Aid Kit) Nine-year-old Agnes Caldwell had been wading through the wind-driven snow with the rest of the Willie Handcart Company for what must have felt like an eternity when relief wagons appeared on the trail ahead of them. Before the storm hit, Agnes had been taking each mile of the autumn trail in stride, even the one that had been strewn with rattlesnakes. For that mile, she and her friend Mary held hands and jumped again and again over the snakes until they were out of danger, mercifully unharmed. But after days of dragging her nearly frozen feet through the deepening snow, she wasn't skipping anymore. And she was literally starving. The death toll in her company was rising with every passing night. Yet of the arrival of the relief party, all Agnes records in her understated history is, “It certainly was a relief.” And then she describes her own rescue, and this is the point today: “The infirm and the aged were allowed to ride, all able-bodied continued to walk. When the wagons started out, a number of us children decided to see how long we could keep up with the wagons, in hopes of being asked to ride. One by one they all fell out, until I was the last one remaining, so determined was I that I should get a ride. After what seemed the longest run I [had] ever made before or since, the driver, [Brother] Kimball, called to me, ‘Say, sissy, would you like a ride?’ I answered in my very best manner, ‘Yes sir.’ “At this he reached over, [took] my hand, [then clucked] to his horses [which also made] me run [even faster] with legs that seemed to [be able to] run no farther. On we went [for what] seemed miles. [I thought at that moment] he was the meanest man that had ever lived or that I had ever heard of, and other things that would not be a credit coming from one so young. Just at what seemed the breaking point, he stopped. Taking a blanket, he wrapped me up and lay me in the bottom of the wagon, warm and comfortable. Here I had time to change my mind, as I surely did, knowing full well by doing this he saved me from freezing [to death].” Can you see why our friend calls this story “Severe Mercy”? “I thought he was the meanest man that ever lived”? Sitting here in our climate-controlled comfort, put yourself in Agnes’ “shoes.” If I had been Agnes, I would have expected a little compassion from this “angel of mercy.” Couldn't one look into my frostbitten face or at my bony, rag-wrapped hand have entitled me to a crumb of kindness? But no. This man took Agnes by that little hand and instead of swinging her up into his lap, in an act of tender mercy, he signaled his team to go faster, forcing her into a stronger, faster run, which increased her circulation. His severe mercy saved her life. What's in your Spiritual First-Aid Kit? I'd love for you to share either in a comment below or in an email (clintandrachael{at}gmail.com).
