Abstract

Objective: to analyze the effect of an educational activity on first aid in school accidents.
Methodology: a quasi-experimental, before-and-after type study, carried out with the technical
staff of special schools for children with disabilities, in the state of Mato Grosso, between
February and August 2017. McNemar’s non-parametric test was performed to analyze the
effect of the educational activity.
Results: 76 mid-level professionals participated, 62 (81.6%) of whom were female and 66
(86.8%) Child Development Assistants. Of the professionals, 35 (46.1%) had never participated
in training or an educational activity related to first aid. There was a significant increase in
correct response to all the questions after the training (p <.05).
Conclusion: the professionals of the technical staff presented insufficient prior knowledge
regarding first aid and the training improved the safety of the students and contributed to the
society in which they are included. The importance of the integration of nurses in the school
environment was evidenced.
