Directions Steps for treatment of snake bite injury: 1) Call 000. Calm the casualty. Lie Casualty down, this will slow the absorbtion of venom and reduce the effect of shock. 2) Check Breathing and follow DRABCD if the casualty is unconscious. 3) Apply indicator bandage directly over the bite site at correct tension. Indicator should show squares when tensioned correctly. Mark the bite site if possible. 4) Wrap the bandage to the end of the affected limb and start an ascending spiral to as high up the limb as possible. Ensure square indicators are showing and the bandage is overlapped to the edge of the indicator. 5) Keep the bitten limb level with the rest of the body to slow the movement of venom in the body and await medical assistance.
