Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the nature of first aid?
  First aid is the immediate and fundamental care provided to a sick or injured person before an authorised medical practitioner takes over their care. It emphasises life preservation and minimising serious harm.
• What are the golden rules of first aid?
  Enlarge the victim’s wrists, neck, waist, and any other tight areas with loose garments or materials. Stop all bleeding, apply bandages to any cuts and burns, and immobilise all fractures. Improvise every item that is required but not readily available. Transport or dispose of the victim properly.
• How often should you replace a first aid kit?
  It’s crucial to correctly maintain periodic checks of your first aid kit and replace any medical supplies as necessary because many components in a first aid kit have expiration dates (usually 3-5 years after production) or can become damaged by frequent usage, dampness, and exposure to the air.
• When should I call 911?
  Call 911 only for emergency purposes like a serious injury, when you could not stop the bleeding and don’t know what to do next, if the person becomes unconscious or having head injury. You can call 911 and seek medical advice. Don’t make a call without any emergency or for minor injuries; it can delay in getting emergency medical assistance to someone who really needs that.
• What does the industrial kit contain?
  Industrial kits have compartments of maximum 7; this particular Metal Cabinet Large SJF M2 contains 7 compartments. In those compartments it includes important and necessary components such as, adhesive plaster, antiseptic lotion, Triangular bandage, safety pin, absorbent cotton, eye ear drops, soft stretcher, Tough cut scissors and so on
• How do we give first aid?
  At first, try to stop the bleeding with the cotton. Clean the wound with antiseptic solution. Apply ointment and cover the wound with dressing bandage.
