The big idea
AI can list common first-aid steps quickly, but for anything serious — head injury, allergic reaction, deep cut — call 911 first.
Some examples
- Prompt: 'Quick first-aid steps for a minor scraped knee on a 6-year-old.'
- Ask AI when a head bump on a child needs an ER visit.
- Have AI list signs of an allergic reaction that need 911.
Try it!
Ask AI for the 5 signs that a head bump needs ER. Save them in your notes for your next babysitting gig.
