Splint the fracture in the position found.
It was called first aid simply because it was the 1st treatment someone has received.
A compound fracture (also known as an open fracture) is one which the bone protrudes the skin. The danger here is infection so you need to cover the wound to prevent infection, immobilise the area and call for help. There is not much else you can do in a first aid capacity until an ambulance arrives. When they do arrive they may decide to straighten the limb to help circulation and prevent bones fusing in the wrong position and they will be taken to hospital for an xray and further treatment.
A First Aid is just the person that gives the FIRST aid. The treatment that is initially received. First aid could be just applying a bandage.

In some minor cases such as a cut finger, first aid may be able to deal with a full treatment by cleansing the wound and dressing it. In other more major cases such as CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation), first aid can help administer lifesaving treatment but ongoing treatment would be given by a paramedic and/or Doctor.
