What can a critical situation with Action-cards® look like?

At a riding school, falls from horses are almost a part of everyday life. However, it doesn’t always go as wrong as it did the day Anna fell off her horse. Anna landed right on her shoulder, and everyone on the pitch could quickly see that it was no joke.

Emma, a teacher at the riding school that day, was a calm and experienced riding professional. She quickly pulled out the first aid kit, which, among other things, contained the riding school’s newly acquired Action-cards®. Emma knew that the step-by-step instructions would guide her through the entire process and ensure proper treatment.

Emma followed the Action-card® closely. First of all, it instructed her to immobilize the shoulder and support the rider’s arm to prevent further injury. Next, the Action-card® guided her to apply something cold to reduce the swelling and ease the pain.

Emma got one of the other riders to call 911, and while they waited for the ambulance, she calmed Anna down as best as she could.

Action-cards® proved to give Emma and Anna exactly the help they needed. Anna was therefore able to quickly return to horseback riding, while Emma has not become uneasy teaching a sport where accidents can happen on a regular basis.

Horseback riding can cause accidents, from falls to serious tongue bites, minor lacerations, and broken limbs. Action-cards® ensure that the injured person gets quick and competent help at any time.

DO YOU HAVE QUESTIONS?

With a first aid course, it sometimes can be difficult to remember all the details. With Action-cards®, you don’t have to remember all the details – we provide first aid information at your fingertips when you need it most!

The great advantage of Action-cards® is that they work wherever you are. With physical cards, you don’t have to be dependent on internet access, or logging in on a phone, app, tablet, or computer to get the help you need. They are also robust, and can withstand water, wind, weather, and hard shocks. 

Many people today use Action-cards®. We have provided Action-cards® to many sports facilities, schools, nurseries, shops, restaurants, factories, etc. For many years, pilots, the armed forces, the police, and the pre-hospital system have used Action-cards®. They do this precisely because they know that it can be difficult to remember important details in critical situations.

Yes, all the knowledge that you would normally have with a first aid instructor you now have access to all the time with your Action-cards®. Therefore, you can easily bring out your Action-cards® and train when it fits you best. Even 30 minutes of practice a few times a year can make a dramatic difference. That way, you can continuously keep your first aid routine sharp without it costing you more than the time you choose to spend on it.

We believe that you should do what you’re most comfortable with. We know many people find it difficult to remember what to do in emergency situations. Action-cards® help people who have to act in such situations. Pilots, the armed forces, the police, and those in the pre-hospital service use them, because they know how difficult it can be to remember important details in critical situations.

There is a QR code on each Action-card® to make your accident registration as easy as possible. In less than 1 minute, you can register an accident by scanning the QR code on the corresponding card – or register if you have trained or read an Action-card®. This can be valuable documentation for you or your organization in case of a lawsuit.

If you scan this QR code, you’ll immediately register what happened, where it happened, the time it happened, and what treatments were given, without you having done anything other than scan the QR code.

When you’ve scanned the QR code, you can add additional comments and pictures of the accident’s location, along with anything else that’s relevant documentation.

A good accident record is absolutely essential to be able to find the most cost-effective solutions for more safety in your company.
