Order of steps when caring for externally bleeding victim?

1. Safety first. Make sure the scene is safe for you and the victim. This means checking for hazards such as traffic, downed power lines, or fire. If it is not safe to approach the victim, call 911 and wait for help to arrive.

2. Put on gloves. This will help protect you from the victim's blood and any other bodily fluids.

3. Control the bleeding. The most important step is to control the bleeding. This can be done by applying direct pressure to the wound, elevating the injured area, or using a pressure bandage.

4. Clean the wound. Once the bleeding is under control, clean the wound with soap and water. This will help to remove dirt and debris from the wound, and reduce the risk of infection.

5. Cover the wound. Cover the wound with a clean bandage to help protect it from infection.

6. Seek medical attention. Even if the bleeding is controlled and the wound is clean, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. A doctor can assess the wound and make sure that there are no underlying injuries that need to be treated.
