History is one of the most important information when dealing with a first aid scene. There is basically only one thing you need to know; "What happened?"

Ask this question directly to the patient the moment you arrive on the scene. Inexperienced first aiders and medical staff think it is unprofessional to ask the patient this question while in fact it is the first question most medical professionals will ask you.

Once you have found out what happened, go into detail with the patient. When did it happen? How did it happen? What were you doing prior to the accident? When was your last meal? Do you have any medical conditions or Allergies? Are you on any medication at all? Have you ever had this condition before?

Keep asking questions. You can do little for the patient unless you determine the mechanism of injury and the injury itself.
