Answer to Question 1

First, one must learn what constitutes an emergency and be prepared in advance to handle any emergency because practice and knowledge may lessen the impact of the emergency. Above all, a calm demeanor for the teacher may head off poor reactions to the emergency, so the prepared teacher would know that being calm is necessary to keep things under control. Proper emergency response can save lives, help lessen the impact of an emergency, and provide comfort to the injured child.

Answer to Question 2

Indicators would include vomiting, shock, confused behavior, unevenly dilated pupils, change in breathing rate, change in pulse rate, cold and clammy skin, and loss of consciousness.
