Face Masks

If you are administering first aid, one of the most common concerns is infection. Even a small cut or scrape can become a serious health concern if it is not properly sanitized. Most infections come from dirt or other foreign substances coming into contact with the wound, but this is not the only source of infection or disease.

If a person providing first aid is also under the weather, or the carrier for a disease, they may risk spreading germs. First aid usually requires the provider to directly contact the victim. This is why you see first aid responders wearing latex gloves. But in order to keep the spread of disease to a minimum, both patients and healthcare providers should consider wearing Disposable Face Masks. While wearing a Cone Respirator Mask, you can ensure greater protection of all those involved in a situation where medical aid is needed.
