First Aid Guide

Accidents can happen anytime—are you prepared to act fast?

If you get burned by hot water, quick action is crucial! Here’s what to do:

Step 1: Immediately run the burn under cool water for at least 10 minutes. Remember, cool water, not ice-cold water!

Step 2: Gently pat the area dry with a clean towel—don’t rub, as this can irritate the skin.

Step 3: Apply aloe vera gel or a sterile burn ointment to help soothe and promote healing. Avoid using butter or toothpaste, as these can trap heat and worsen the burn.

Step 4: Cover the burn with a non-stick bandage to protect it from dirt and infection.

And that’s it! These simple steps can make a big difference. Stay prepared and stay safe!
