I am and EMT and I feel stilly because I've made this mistake and, even though we don't really flush wounds (just slap some gauze over it so someone else can deal, since everywhere you are in my county you are 10 minutes away from a hospital) I'm still fairly certain I was taught to... well not do the thing.

Thanks, anyway, this is a great reminder.
