Cuts & Grazes: First Aid Awareness

Most cuts and grazes are minor and can be treated at home, but some need urgent medical care, stitches or a tetanus injection. This course explains NHS first aid for cuts and grazes – stopping bleeding, cleaning and dressing – the signs of infection, and exactly when to get urgent advice or call 999.
