Emergency eye wash and Deluge Showers

Let’s hope you never need one, but if you do let’s hope it is clean and accessible. If you get foreign practices in your eyes or a chemical spill on your body, an emergency eye wash station or deluge shower is the most important initial step in first aid treatment. Chemical burns to the eye are among the most urgent of emergencies. 

Employees who are exposed to possible chemical splashes must know in advance how to use an eye wash/ deluge station properly.

Immediately after the accident, flood the eye for at least 15 minutes with water or eyewash solution, using fingers to keep the eye open as wide as possible. Water may be colder/ hotter than body temperature, which can be uncomfortable. But it is imperative to irrigate for the recommended period of time.

Poll the eye ball as much as possible, to remove any loose particles retained under the eye lids. Do not put anything except water into the eye to remove particles. 

It is easy to forget about the eye wash stations or showers until they are needed in an emergency.

  • Know the ovation of your emergency shower, it can save you in your emergency
  • Don’t let yours be care buried with dust; it could save your sight
  • Take care while working with chemical baths or you may end up taking a shower
  • Take care of equipment’s as you take care of your Childern
