Master Care Emergency Action Troop(MCEAT) .
Master Care is an emergency action troop founded to help people involved in accidents in Uganda.
Imagine that a victim has a hemorrhage following a road crash. If nobody applies pressure to the wound to stop the bleeding, even the quickest services in the world will only arrive on the scene in time to certify death
One
of the most common causes of death for wounded on road accident is lack
of help .I have seen many road accidents and I myself was involved in
road accidents, unfortunately it took long hours to get an ambulance and
none was an experienced person to help.
Every
community needs a trained emergency response troop, ready for service
at any time .countless people will die if nothing is made to respond to
emergencies
Increasing awareness
First Aid training
First aid training and refresher courses , we are targeting
other population categories, for example children, cyclists, drivers
,schools, working places , sports and games , house hold and industry
workers

Education
in the protection and saving of lives share universal foundations,
being practical and giving confidence to act. This education is gained
through awareness and refreshment initiatives such as media campaigns,
training courses either in a classroom environment, CD-ROM or through an
internet based e-learning system. It can also take place through
involvement in community or group activities. It is essential that first
aid education shows consideration for and pays respect to local
conditions, culture and capacities.
Furthermore,
training people to cope with road injuries should include information
related to reducing both the risk of a crash by wearing reflective
materials or not driving after drinking alcohol, and the severity of
injury by wearing helmets when riding a motor cycle or scooter.
First Aid basic training
· How to enhance road safety practices - wear reflective materials; helmet; fasten seat belts; respect speed limits; don't drive after drinking alcohol.
· How to act safely and protect the scene - to prevent further crashes and minimize the risk for those rendering assistance; ensure self-protection.
· How to summon help - report the crash to the emergency services, and give relevant information.
· How to make an emergency removal of an injured person from the scene, when necessary and possible.
· How to assess the physical state of the injured person - check vital functions: consciousness, circulation, breathing as well as the psychological needs of those affected.
· How to respond to visible bleeding, unconsciousness, breathing problems, shock and bone trauma - to enable the injured person to be relieved and to survive whilst awaiting the arrival of professional health care services.
· How to monitor the situation and offer psychological support -
to be able to sustain the assistance provided, while taking care of
wounds as well as the psychological condition of the injured person.

Uganda
and other countries in Africa have been affected by wars and HIV, in
many areas children are living as beggars on the street; they are
withdrawn from schooling to care for the sick or due to lack of school
fees and scholastic materials. Other major obstacles to child survival,
development, protection and participation in Africa include lack of
food, water, shelter, health care and education. This program aims to
