Knowledge about first aid in basic education teachers in the city of Portoviejo, Ecuador
Journal Title: Revista Eugenio Espejo - Year 2023, Vol 17, Issue 2
Abstract
This study aimed to analyze the level of knowledge about first aid in basic education teachers among two educational institutions in Portoviejo. This was developed with a quantitative approach, non-experimen-tal design, and analytical approach in a population of 13 teachers from a public school and eight from a private institution (21 in total). Data was collected using a validated survey that measured four dimen-sions—concerning knowledge about first aid, a predominance of those who had not received training (86%), and those who stated they were motivated to learn (85%). Those who attached importance to their professional performance (78.35%) was determined. Most of the teachers evaluated had insuffi-cient knowledge about first aid, requiring preparation. In addition, there was no association between these and self-perception in this regard in the research context.
