First aid for a broken bone

Key skill: Immobilise the affected part

1. Encourage the person to support the injury with their hand, or use a cushion or items
of clothing to prevent unnecessary movement.
2. As soon as possible, call 999 or ask someone else to call for you.
3. Continue supporting the injury until help arrives.
