Tips on Providing Basic Wound Care to Children

tips-on-providing-basic-wound-care-to-childrenSeeing your child fall, get hurt, and be wounded is enough to make a parent worry. Since children are always active, it is normal for them to bump into things and get scratches or scrapes. As a parent, knowing how to administer basic wound care is essential to treat cuts quickly and prevent them from getting infected. This is particularly important for deep lacerations and punctures with blood.

Thus, here are some useful tips to properly administer basic wound care for your child:

  • Wash your hands and sanitize with alcohol to prevent further infection of the wound.
  • Stop any active bleeding by applying ample pressure on the wound.
  • Clean the wound with running water and soap with non-harmful substances.
  • Cover the wound with a band-aid (small cuts) or sterile gauze (deep cuts).
