Q #436 - At an incident, someone is suffering from severe burns. What should you do to help them?
Your priority is to cool the burns with a clean, cool, non-toxic liquid, preferably water. Its coolness will help take the heat out of the burns and relieve the pain. Keep the wound doused for at least 10 minutes. If blisters appear, don't attempt to burst them, as this could lead to infection.
Apply lotions to the injury
Burst any blisters
Remove anything sticking to the burns
Douse the burns with clean, cool, non-toxic liquid
