The independent variable was health education using role play methods and the dependent variables were knowledge and first aid wound skill. The data were analyzed by using Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test and Mann Whitney U Test with level significance α<0,05.Results: The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test results showed that there were enhancement for knowledge (p=0.000) and first aid wound skill(p=0.000) for post intervention toward the experimental group. These data were strengthened by the result of Mann Whitney U Test statistical analysis that showed the significant differences for knowledge (p=0.000) and action application of open wounds care (p=0.000).Conclusion: It can be concluded that health education using role play methods affected knowledge and wound first aid skill on student.
