Frist aid

The first aid is the primary action to save a person who are at risk of life, but it is a difficult decision because we do not have information about the person, we do not know who is he, what kind of diseases suffered and the most important are we ready and with the necessary knowledge to apply the first aid?

To do a good job, we need to know some basic steps:

1. Your life is the most important, sometimes people we know first aids forget to look carefully the enviorment and the patient; with this, He/she is in risk and can became in a patient, too. You need to be sure that the patient and all the people or elements that are in the area are safe or in good conditions.
2. If the area is sure, you can start with the patient. First he/she is counscious or unconscious. Look for a response of the patient, you can ask name, age, where is he/she, what day is or the date (be careful if the patients knows the place and the time, it is important to the paramedics).
3. If the person is not counscious, call the emergency number of your country !

The first aids have different techniques to save a person's life. One of this technics is:

• CPR or cardio-pulmonary resusitation: it is one of the most importante because they can prevent the death of the patient for a heart attack. To provied CPR to a patient we need to follow some steps:
  

1. Airway: Open carefully the mouth and check that the airway is clean, or in other words, the airway does not has any material or unusual object inside. Open the airway by tilting head with chin lift.
2. Breathing: Be careful if the patient is breathing or not (if he/she if breathing, you need to pay attention on how he is doing it. It is fast, slow, difficult or is normal)
3. CPR: if he/she is not breathing and does not have pulse star with CPR (30 chest compressions x 2 breaths).
4. Desfibrillation: use a AED if the patient does not respond.

You can have also a firts aid kit, that commonly is compouned by:

• Gloves (sterile)
• Bandages, roller bandages and tape
• (Sterile) Gauze
• Antiseptic wipes and swabs
• Absorbent compresses
• Antibiotic cream
• Burn ointment
• Mask for breathing (rescue breathing/CPR)
• Chemical cold pack
• Eye shield and eye wash
• First aid reference guide that includes local phone numbers

NPL II Origins and Technics

NLP Origins

Neuro Linguistic Programming began its life in the 70s with John Grinder (a professor from the University of California) and Richard Bandler; both men have a fascination with the human excellence, the behavioural patterns, amount others.  They started Modelling three people, Fritz Perls, Virginia Satir and Milton Erickson.

As we say before modelling is the core activity in NLP and it consists in the process of replicating the language and behavioural patterns of an individual who is excellent at some activities. The first three  people, already mentioned, was the 'models’ of Grinder and Bandler with their unconscious excellence. Through NLP Modelling both men made explicit the skills that the three geniuses have and with this the NLP was  born.

Grinder and Bandler presented two books in 1975, “Structure of Magic I and II.” The books put NLP on the world and,  with the interest that appears in the society, they started to offer some courses to share the information with others. NPL teaches the world that the most important communication is not between people but within people.


NLP Research and Recognition Project

The clinical psychologist Frank Bourke created a non-for-profit organization,called the NLP  Research and Recognition Project. The main idea was to expand the clinical investigation into Neuro-Linguistic Programming.

Dr. Bourke has been using NLP clinically since the early 70’s  and with the 9/11 attack , he designed and applied a rehabilitation to the survivors of the WTC building; as a result he founded the organization because he considered that science need  this implementation.


Popular NLP Techniques

Eye Accessing Cues: Grinder and Bandler discovered the different movements that eyes do when people are talking , thinking or listening. This movements indicate whether one is using pictures, words, sounds, or feelings when thinking, remembering or learning; they are called essing cues.

NPL and its Principles

What is NLP?

Neuro Linguistic Program is the practice of understanding how people organise their thinking, feeling, language and behaviour to produce the results they do. Commonly, NLP is used for personal development and for success in business; additionally the NPL has a key elements, that is the study of de internal mental maps of the world as a product of the way that people filter and perceive information through their senses.

Now, we are going to study a little about the words that compound the NLP:

The word 'Neuro' is referred to the mind or brain and also, about how states of mind and body affect communication and behavior; as we said before, people have mental maps that are constituted of internal images, sounds, tactile awareness, internal sensations, taste, smells, amount others (this is the “neuro” aspect). The word ‘Linguistic’ is referred to the personal meaning that assigned for the information received from the world outside; on other words, we select a language to our internal map, it can be verbal and nonverbal communication. At last, the word ‘Programming’ is referred to the behavioural response that occurs as a result of the neuro linguistic processes; also, it is referred to be ability to change our mind and body states.

To discover the world of NLP, the people have some others to do it, they are NPL Modelling, NLP Training and NLP Application.

• NLP Modelling: It is the highest skill level in NPL, Modelling can be used to capture patterns of excellence present in anyone or in any context. Communly, it uses the activity of compared someone who is excellent with someone that is mediocre at the same thing. 

• NLP Training: they are the beginners that start to share thief knowledge about NLP .

• NLP Application: a practitioner can employ the necessary skills as an agent of change working with individuals, groups, companies or in others environments.

On other hand; we need to remember that all the theories, investigations or ideas are based on pillars of foundations in this case we have four of this:

• Rapport: it is the connection that people have with others. Rapport can be built quickly through technics as eye accessing, preferences, traditions,etc.; It is and important gift from NLP to the people.

• Sensory awareness: NLP invited you to notice that the world is much riches and different when you take the time to see it and to pay attention on it.

• Outcome thinking: An outcome is your goal for doing something, this principle may help to make the best decisions and choices, it connects to thinking about what you want.

• Behavioral flexibility: It means being able to do something differently if the way you are currently doing it; it is about being flexible to find fresh perspectives and to build these habits into your repertoire.
