Girls Club learns first aid

     Last Friday, Mary Ann Hopkins, a retired nurse, taught the girls basic first aid.  Starting with the correct way to wash hands  and covering small cuts and wounds, she ended with how to bandage a head wound.  The girls learned the right way to apply a band aid, and how to put on rubber gloves.  It was very informative and useful for girls who are often in charge of younger brothers and sisters.  They learned what they could handle and when to call 911.  Mary Ann will finish up next week with sprains and slings.  What fun!
They got this part down pat, and after the lesson turned them into balloons!
