Health- Monday- 3rd period

[askhimyourself.livejournal.com]

Health was taking place in a normal classroom, because everyone here might be used to crazy but Claire was from somewhere (mostly) normal and also she had no idea how to work the Danger Shop. And on a table in the back was an array of supplies. She'd get to that.

"Morning, guys, and welcome to Health. I'm... Ms. Temple, I guess," Claire said, and it was probably pretty obvious that was weird, "and in real life, I'm an ER nurse in New York. But for now I'm here, and giving you guys and education. While we're here, we're going to be learning about some basic first aid, along with some nutrition and mental health and drug education. If there's anything you're not comfortable with, just tell me. You don't have to tell me why. But for now, since it's the first week and I know none of you and I know people here are from different places, I want you to tell me who you are and where you come from, and then we're going to get to an activity."

Ringo's little pile of supplies was, well, not so little, really. But she was excited to explain them.

"I thought that these little metal things," they were called finger splints, Ringo, "would be useful for someone who lands wrong and breaks or dislocates a finger. And a sling in case you do the same thing to your whole arm." She frowned slightly. "Most people don't break both arms at the same time, so I didn't think I'd need a second sling."

"And I also got these little scissor things that don't cut, but have little grippy ends?" Forceps. "In case someone takes a bad spill and ends up with gravel or broken glass or something stuck in them. And then the antiseptic spray and bandages for after you get all the bits out." It was less fun if you had to pick the bits out by hand, by the way.

"Those are good," Claire said. "A little specific, but that's all stuff you're going to be learning about and learning how to use here."

Yay! Ringo had done a pretty good job! She grinned. "Thanks." She frowned thoughtfully. "I suppose it wouldn't be that useful if you were running a fever or something, though, would it?"

"Not really," Claire acknowledged. "But that's why you're here, to learn what you'll need, right?"

Ringo nodded firmly. That totally made sense. She was even kind of looking forward to it.
