Stay calm- everyone step back Ms. Brooke is hurt 2. Get help- I know what to do, I can help 3. Look at the scene- Ms. Brooke tripped over a toy, no one else is hurt 4. Look at the injured person- can Ms. Brooke move and get up? Help her up so she can sit in a chair. 5. Give first aid- get an ice pack, put your leg up so that knee doesnt swell. Explain that a bruise is a wound under the skin, when the skin has not broken. Blood vessels inside have broken and make the bruise dark blue. The best thing that you can do is to put ice on a bruise to help the swelling. Some bruises are more serious if they involve your eye, chest, abdomen and or head.
