Detailed explanation-2: -If someone is injured in an incident, first check that you and the casualty aren’t in any danger. If you are, make the situation safe. When it’s safe to do so, assess the casualty and, if necessary, phone 999 or 112 for an ambulance. You can then carry out basic first aid.

Never stand on a chair. Try not to carry hot liquids too far and take care when you’re carrying food to another room-use a tray or a trolley.
