Crash!
3pm, 10/5/xx
John Smith (D.O.B: 11/09/xx - 4 years) is riding a bike on the bike track. The Educator Yahma had just spoken to John about his behaviour - going too fast and trying to crash into other children also riding bikes. Yahma reminded John of the safe bike riding rules.
Ten minutes later John again attempts to crash into the back of another bike rider. John’s bike overturns and John screams. Yahma look up from talking to another child. As the nearest staff member, Yahma reaches him first and finds John has a deep cut on his calf and it is bleeding profusely. John has touched the wound. He has blood on his hands and the blood is seeping into his sock. He will not walk and he is too big to carry. Yahma does have disposable gloves with her. She has a First Aid Certificate and is authorised to administer first aid.

Question:

How should Yahma respond? (Consider implementing correct procedures including administering first aid and managing blood spills).

Yahma has cleaned the wound and applied a pressure bandage. It is apparent that John will need stitches in his calf. What action should now be taken?

While Yahma was attending to John another Educator finds the bike has a damaged pedal, it is extremely sharp. There is also blood on the path. List the follow-up action that should occur in relation to this accident?
