Staff clean the wounddo NOT apply an cream, lotion, spray, etc. to any open or major wounddo NOT attempt to remove a projectile that has impaled the personbrace any projectiles with rolls of gauze (example: a man's leg is impaled by a piece of steel rod)start the dressing a little higher and a little lower than the woundstart from the fingers or toes on a limb wound and go upward with the roll of gauze---if the lower leg or arm needs coveredleave the toes and fingers exposeddo NOT wrap too loosely or too tightlycheck the color and warmth of fingers and toes; if blue or whitish, the bandage is too tight and needs removed and re-done.do NOT put an Ace bandage over a major wound; you need to see the gauze to see if bleeding continues or restarts.seek medical help promptlyA bandage should be sterile BUT any clean cloth or rag can substitute for a bandage if nothing else is available.Note: A scratch or scrape can be cleaned and a bandaid or dressing put on IF needed.
