It is known that various factors in childhood, youth, adulthood and in old age appear as factors that affect health. A significant amount of childhood and youth is spent at schools which gives rise to adoption of the school health approach.

As data collection method, the researches use survey with 20 questions that they developed. According to the findings of the research, health studies carried out in preschool education institutions and available first aid materials are insufficient, and some recommendations are provided in that regard.
