| Summary: | The aim of this study was to develop an educational process on First Aid (FA) and Basic Life Support (BLS) in the initial care of emergency and emergency victims in the school setting, in order to compare the previous knowledge acquired by educational actions in health carried out by students of the undergraduate program of nursing (UFMT/Sinop). A longitudinal, prospective, quantitative approach involved the training of 27 teachers from a municipal school, who answered a questionnaire before and after each training. It was demonstrated that the training promoted a significant increase in the hit rates after the training, in relation to the previous knowledge, on BLS and FA. The educational actions have achieved an excellent use, which gives the University and the academics, in the scope of extension, a very important role in the transformation of lay citizens into potential rescuers capable of providing immediate and quality assistance to the victim in urgent situations and emergency situations, both in school settings and in other out-of-hospital environments. |
