Wound Care Expert Advice


As a first aider or personnel responsible for the first aid equipment, you do not always need to replenish all your first aid stock. Some items are used more than others. In offices for example plasters are more likely to be used than a burn dressing. At Seton we provide the individual products so you can buy for your workplaces’ requirements.

According to the HSE there were 71,062 employee non-fatal injuries reported by employers in 2017/2018, highlighting the importance of medical supplies within a workplace. Have you got sufficient wound care to treat all minor injuries that could occur?

How to dress a wound?*

As instructed by the NHS, here is the step-by-step guide on dressing a wound:

1) Wash hands thoroughly and wear disposable gloves
2) Ensure the patient is sitting or lying down
3) Tell the person you are about to apply a dressing to the wound
4) Apply pressure to the wound to stop the bleeding & raise the arm/leg if this is the area affected
5) Once the bleeding has stopped, use a dressing slightly bigger than the affected area, to place carefully over the injury to protect it

*Always seek medical advice if unsure of which medical equipment to use when dressing a wound or if you have any queries.
