Bleeding




Make sure there's nothing embedded in the wound. Put pressure on the wound, Sit the
person down and raise it above the level of the heart. Apply a bandage - a clean tea towel
or pillowcase will do.
If bleeding still continues, apply pressure to blood vessels leading to area—in arm, press
just below armpit; in leg, press against groin where thigh and trunk join.
Then call 999 if necessary
