In evaluating the casualty for location, type, and size of the
wound or injury, cut or tear his clothing and carefully expose
the entire area of the wound. This procedure is necessary to avoid
further contamination. Clothing stuck to the wound should be left
in place to avoid further injury. DO NOT touch the wound; keep
it as clean as possible.
WARNING (081-831-1016)
DO NOT REMOVE protective clothing in a chemical environment.
Apply dressings over the protective clothing.
