The summer is the time of fun
and activities in the fresh air. This is also the time when most of you are
planning where to spend the holidays? You also need to plan what to take with
you for the safety of their loved ones and for their own health.
Do you go camping or to the
country, if you qualify for a holiday of a seaside or for travel on the
cultural and historical places, mishaps can happen to you anywhere and at the
most unexpected moment. During the summer you may be weakening your alertness
is why it is important to prepare yourself for the summer vacation these
helpful tips:
1. Cook and take a first aid
kit. You can buy a standard kit for first aid at your local store, and it will
be better if you put it in a few extra funds in case of emergency. Your first
aid kit should include: sunscreen, bandages and dressings, tissue tape,
scissors, tweezers (to work with tapes), antihistamines (such as Benadryl),
cold compresses, repellent, summer hat, sunscreen glasses, the warm water spray
and card with emergency contact numbers.
2. Stay indoors, if possible,
especially at midday, when the
sun's rays are strongest. If there is no air conditioning, stay on the lowest
floor of the house, beyond the reach of sunlight. Remember that electric fans
do not cool the air, and only move it. If you can not walk into a room, at
least, find shade.
3. If you notice a slight
allergic stimulation (mosquitoes, bees, and poison ivy), the very first thing
you should clean irritated area with soap and water to remove from skin
irritant. Then you should use antihistamines to relieve the itching and stop
the reaction. However, if you or someone in your family has a severe allergy,
make sure that you have the Epi-pen, and sure to take his rest.
4. Cuts, scrapes, bumps and
bruises. First you need to stop the bleeding, and only then wash the affected
area with soap and soda. The next step, you need to start processing the wound
disinfecting ointment and finally wrap, so there again no dirt.
