Bleeding & Wounds

In an emergency, call 911 first (or your local emergency number). If someone is unresponsive and not breathing normally, start CPR and send for an AED. Do not delay a call to read a guide.

From severe bleeding and amputations to nosebleeds, grazes and splinters: how to control bleeding, protect wounds, and recognise the hidden signs of internal bleeding and infection.

11 guides in this section. Select one for numbered first-aid steps, what not to do, and when to get medical care. Every guide prints as a clean one-topic sheet.
