Abstract
Introduction. First aid is a special type of assistance, is the primary measure in the chain of survival of the victim in emergency situations. The scope of the first aid in this edition of regulatory legal acts is not sufficient in situations where the victim is in a remote, inaccessible area and without the possibility of providing emergency medical care, which significantly reduces the chance of survival.
The purpose of the work is to determine the list of measures for the provision of the extended first aid and develop proposals for improving the regulation of relations in the field of the first aid in an expanded volume between the participants of these relations to protect their legitimate rights and interests.
Materials and methods. Research material: regulatory legal acts regulating relations in the field of the first aid and determining its scope. Research methods: analytical, logical, and information modelling.
Results. The analysis of the studied normative legal acts showed the presence of a legal gap in the field of regulation of first aid including the uncertainty of the volume of the extended first aid. To improve the regulatory and legal regulation of first aid activities and contribute to the current legislation, the author has developed and proposed a draft volume of the extended first aid for discussion.
Research limitations. In the study of issues related to the provision of the extended first aid, 18 regulatory legal acts were selected and analyzed: the Constitution of the Russian Federation, 7 federal laws, 10 orders of relevant ministries; as well as 2 technical acts (GOST).
