safe space The global response to the COVID-19
pandemic, the quarantine, might leave us feeling
safe and sound in our own homes. However, even at
home, we need to take care of each other. That
means being prepared for inevitable little
accidents a small cut as you cook dinner or a
grazed knee during hide and seek. Learn to look
after your family and yourself keep calm, clean

But have you considered the specific safety
questions posed by the different rooms of the
house? The couch, the kitchen or the imaginary
fairy tale castle in the kids playroom? There
are a range of different treatments to be aware
of, so youre safe in every room. The Living
Room Has the living room become the centre of
your whole life during quarantine? Has it changed
from a space for relaxation to the place you
spend the majority of your day? Where you work
and play, moods go up and down and things
happen, both good and bad. Watching movies and
listening to your favourite records arent
obviously extreme sports that are fraught with
danger, but even while youre taking it easy,
little mishaps can happen. Its simply impossible
to avoid some small cuts and grazes, so make
sure to have a well-stocked first aid kit at
home. While youre preparing for the next Zoom
call, considering your quarantine playlist or
adding to your reading list, spare a little
thought for the perfect medicine cabinet. If
youre wondering what it should contain, here is
our suggestion Hansaplast My Handy Kit. The
Kitchen The kitchen is often the hub of the home
food really brings people together! However,
alongside the fun and games, the shared smiles
and stories, someone is probably trying to
concentrate on cooking and that means heat,
sharp edges, slippery surfaces and maybe alcohol
just for the recipe of course! Simply put,
accidents can happen. You can take all the care
in the world and still find yourself crying over
spilt milk. However, if youre well prepared,
you can stay safe, focus on enjoying family time
and have a full stomach. Following our advised
Wound Care Routine and having appropriate
treatments within arms reach could save your
meal remember to keep your first aid kit handy
when youre taking care of the mise en place.
To keep your concentration on the food rather
than your wound, youll need treatments which can
handle all the water and

steam and the chopping and stirring. The moisture
and movement unavoidable in cooking means the
chef needs a truly kitchen-proof
treatment. Hansaplast Spot Plasters are
perfectly shaped for smaller nicks, so theyll
stay in place while you keep up the hard
work. Hansaplast Washproof Plasters are
waterproof, so they can hold on while youre
washing the ingredients or your hands. The Kids
Playroom Investing in quality time with your
family is exactly the kind of bright-shining
silver-lining you might need to get through the
potential hardship of the COVID-19 pandemic. It
would be a terrible shame to let it be ruined by
a silly little accident, like a grazed knee from
tripping over the building blocks or a trapped
finger in the dress-up box. Follow the
Hansaplast Wound Care Routine and your children
will be able to get back to their fun in no time.
The Hansaplast Kids Plaster is perfect for
protecting most wounds you might just find your
children inventing imaginary injuries, so they
get to see the next cool design. The Balcony As
city parks close and were shut inside our homes,
the craving for the outdoors especially with
the teasing arrival of the Spring sunshine
means that many of us are balcony-bound or drawn
to our gardens. Are you taking on a new DIY
project, sprucing up and shining your balcony
into a haven? Are you getting busy with your
green fingers, curating the perfect herb
garden? When youre relaxing outside, remember
that the lower your guard drops, the more prone
you are to little scrapes and scratches which
might ruin your relaxation. Though the balcony
is at home you are still outside! This might
seem obvious, but the implications to keep in
mind are important. If you do have a mishap, the
risk of infection is high and requires
appropriate treatment. The Wound Care Routine is
the perfect starting point for dealing with small
wounds you may sustain. However, if youre doing
little bits of manual labour on your balcony or
out in your garden, youll need to be extra
careful to cleanse the wound and use a
Hansaplast Extra Patch Plaster to properly
protect the area so you can carry on with your
work. Life Goes On Time at home might seem like
the perfect opportunity to kick back and relax.
However, quarantine means isolation and that
brings with it a range of new challenges
especially if little accidents get in the way of
your DIY plans and cooking practice. Were here
to help with treatments for small injuries so you
can focus on your life, not on your wounds.
