•Secure dressing with bandage or tape.
BANDAGE
•Used to apply pressure to
bleeding wounds and burns;
and to provide immobilization
for broken bones, sprains and

TECHNIQUES IN BANDAGING
• Bandaging technique depends upon the size and location
of the wound, your first aid skills and materials at hand.
• Bandage firmly over bleeding wound and securely over

the bandage is still comfortable and that it remains firmly
secured.
