Here are the answers to our First Aid Quiz
1. What first aid kit item will help protect you from diseases that can be transmitted from bodily fluids?
Answer – Latex gloves
2. When you are faced with a bleeding injury, when should you replace blood soaked gauze?
Answer – Never. Do not remove blood soaked dressings, as you should place new dressings over the blood soaked ones. Leaving these in place will help “clot” the wound and control bleeding. It’s natural to think that once a gauze dressing becomes blood soaked it needs to be removed, but doing so will only start the bleeding again and bring you back to square one.
3. What is the most common household injury among children?
Answer – Falls are the leading cause of nonfatal home injuries across all childhood age groups, accounting for an average of nearly 1.3 million injuries each year.
4. When faced with an eye injury, where should you place bandages after flushing the injured eye out with water?
Answer – Cover both eyes with eye pads, since it is important to keep the injured eye still as the eyes work in unison.
