Would a chefs job be dangerous?
not really Well, ultimately that would depend on your definition of dangerous... if you are talking "healthwise", well, consider the amount of cooking toxins an average chef is exposed to on a daily basis and knowing that "blackened dishes are in fact carcinogenic(sp?) ...or consider, perhaps, the chef whose specialty is in the exotic (and potentially toxic) cuisines such as puffer fish and/or rattlesnake... What if, perhaps, the chef is a clumsy type and burns, scalds or cuts him/herself? ...and not to mention the endless realm of viral and bacterial diseases the can be passed on via tainted food, bad cooking practices, sick chef, etc... Considering the many facets of the term, dangerous, overall, i'd vote a yes- being a chef could potentially be very dangerous, but with proper training and common sense, the risk factors can be eliminated or minimized thereby making the job "safe".

How do you create awareness of First Aid amongst senior citizens?
First of all, approach it in a non-patronising and condesending manner. Enquire as to what their major concerns are, what illnesses they are most worried about and what they aim to achieve by the end of your training. I would teach as a basic set: How to call 999/911. The importance of up to date medication lists and illnesses and any other treatment that they may be undertaking in an easily accessible place. * Basic Life Support/CPR * * Choking * * Burns/Scalds * * Falls/Suspected Fractures * * Heart Attacks/Angina * * Stroke recognition * * Difficulty in breathing/COPD as a bare minimum.
