AB - The purpose of the study was to examine special education teachers' knowledge content and practice skills for first-aid in the various emergencies and to provide procedures for minimizing the risk of further injuries to students with disabilities after contingent accidents at special education settings.
Three hundred and three special education teachers were invited to participate in this study. All participants were from special schools and special classrooms in general schools. In order to examine special education teachers' treatment method in emergencies at special education settings, Special Education Teachers’ first-aid Practice Questionnaire was used. SAS 9.1.3 program was used to analyze the Frequency and percentage of items in the questionnaire. The results of this study was as follows.
The result revealed that the significant difference was found in knowledge of first-aid depending on interest and experiences of first-aid. However, the difference was not indicated in knowledge of first-aid depending on sex, age, education level, career of teacher. On the other hand, the significant difference was found in a competency of first-aid depending on sex, place of work, career of teacher, interest and experience of number of emergency situation.
In addition to that, special education teachers experienced the emergency situations such as convulsion, vomiting/diarrhea, high fever, losing blood, fracture/dislocation in order, and then being suffocated, getting burned, getting hurt from a fall, being fallen. The implications and suggestions of this study is the necessity of developing and providing the first-aid educational program for special education teachers. Furthermore follow-up research is needed to explore the fact-finding on first-aid performed by special education teachers.
