Question 5
After providing care for life - threatening bleeding, it is crucial to ensure personal hygiene to prevent the spread of blood - borne pathogens. Washing hands thoroughly after removing gloves is a standard practice in medical and health care to protect the caregiver. Monitoring the wound (while important) is not the final step. Disposing of gloves is part of the process but hand - washing is a more comprehensive final hygiene step. Notifying emergency contact is usually done earlier in the process.
A roller bandage is used to hold a dressing in place on a wound and maintain pressure (which helps with bleeding control). It is not used to clean the wound (that's usually with antiseptics). It cannot stop bleeding without a dressing (the dressing is the primary absorbent material). And it is not for replacing the dressing (it is for securing the existing dressing).
