ABSTRACT First aid is the initial care given to the person who is injured. The aims of first aid are to preserve and protect life, prevent further injury or deterioration of illness and help to promote recovery. First aider is a person with formal training in first aid, emergency care or medicine, who provides first aid. First aid assessments and interventions should be medically sound and should be based on scientific evidence. The nurse plays an important role in providing first aid and also in teaching how to give first aid.The present study was undertaken to evaluate the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on selected first aid measures among school teachers working at St. Hannah’s high school, Secunderabad, A.P. The objectives of the study 1. To assess the knowledge regarding selected first aid measures among school teachers 2. To evaluate the effectiveness of structured teaching programme regarding selected first aid measures by comparing pretest and posttest knowledge scores. 3. To find out the significant association between posttest knowledge scores with their selected background variables Major findings of the study A Quasi experimental, one group pretest – posttest research design was adopted for the present study. Non- probability convenient sampling technique was used to select 50 school teachers working at St. Hannah’s High school, Secunderabad. Data was collected using structured knowledge questionnaire during the month of June 2012. For the present study, a structured knowledge questionnaire was prepared after validating its content with various experts in the field of nursing. The questionnaire was used to assess the knowledge of school teachers on selected first aid measures. To find out the feasibility and reliability of the tool, the pilot study was conducted from 08.05.2012 to 15.05.2012. The tool was found to be feasible and reliable for the main study. The main study was conducted from 2nd June to 8th June 2012. Data was collected from 50 school teachers and was organized, tabulated and analyzed with the help of descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The mean percentage of overall knowledge score in the pretest was (14.54) 36% with standard deviation of 2.20 and (36.35) 91% in the post test with standard Deviation of 1.53.The obtained ‘t’ value 59.24 is greater than the table value 2.66 and found to be highly significant at the level of p<0.05.So it is evident the structured teaching programme was effective in increasing the knowledge level of school teachers on selected first aid measures. There was no significant association between the post test knowledge scores with their selected variables. Conclusion: The present study attempted to evaluate the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on selected first aid measures and found that the most of the subjects 38(76%) had inadequate knowledge in pretest and concluded that there was a significant improvement in subject’s knowledge in the posttest 47(94%) after administration of structured teaching programme
