There are trained professionals who can be called when somebody is sick or injured, but if the average person knows first aid and CPR, hurt, sick, or dying people can receive life-saving care much faster.
Some injuries or illnesses can also be treated without professional care if the average person knows enough first aid to handle it alone.

However, the presence of safety pins in the first aid kit comes in useful when an improvised arm sling is used or when immobilisation is required.
