Abstract

Accidents are common to happen in the school environment with the need for teacher training in first aid, because they are the first to be in contact with students in emergency situations. The deficiency of appropriate technical-scientific knowledge can lead to inappropriate procedures in the care of schoolchildren victims of accidents, causing sequelae and may evolve into deaths. The study aimed to investigate to what extent IFPA education workers have knowledge and mastery in first aid. In order to discuss what would be the challenges and needs they have regarding first aid within the school environment. The sample of these 135 education workers, with representation of all 18 campuses and the rectory, and the three categories: teachers, administrative technicians and outsourced. Where it can be seen that the deficiency of a large part of education workers in working in situations of need of knowledge and mastery in first aid is real, as well as the lack of knowledge of Law No. 13,722 of 2018 that deals with the obligation of basic education establishments to train their teachers and employees in the basics of first aid. From this data, an educational product was developed, in the form of an EAD course in the format of MOOC (Open and Massive Online Course), with the proposal to contribute to the training in first aid for these education workers. The educational product was validated pairs/specialists, belonging to the IFPA framework. With this research, it was intended to cooperate in the training of education workers regarding situations that need knowledge in first aid and in the protection of life in the educational environment.
