Ajay: Hey man, did you hear about Sunny’s basketball accident?
Vijay: Hi, yeah I did. How did it happen?
Ajay: He was trying to score a basket. He jumped for it and fell down on his side. He has scratches and bruises on his left side, he has a contusion on his left hip. He fell pretty badly. He was unable to move so they took him to the nearest hospital in an ambulance.
Vijay: Did he not get first aid here?
Ajay: No, our medical room is pretty limited in resources for such scenarios. Also, he needed immediate assistance for the same by a doctor. Our school only has a nurse.
Vijay: Yeah. Was he not wearing any protective gear?
Ajay: No, otherwise the injury would have been minimal.
Vijay: I think we should write to the principal about safety measures to be taken by our school for such activities. They should make protective gears mandatory.
Ajay: Also, they could renovate the basketball court and make it more player friendly. Also, PT teachers should always monitor when students are playing. He could train them to play safe.
Vijay: Our medical room needs to be equipped to handle situations like these. Let us get everyone’s agreement on this and write to our principal to implement such changes.
Ajay: Sure, let’s go.
