It is important for everyone using the lab to be aware of where the laboratory safety products are located, and how to use them properly. The most important laboratory safety equipment are goggles and gloves. These will protect you from the majority of dangers occurring in the laboratory. Some other important laboratory safety equipment that is used in case of an emergency is the: eye wash (if chemicals get in your eyes), fire blanket (smother a fire), safety shower (in case of chemical spill), and first aid kits (for minor injuries). The variety of laboratory safety equipment allows people to be safe in almost any situation, even if it is dangerous. Of course, if anything does go wrong, there is always the telephone with which calling 911, or the appropriate emergency service would be a good idea. The first time you visit any lab, your teacher or assistant will show you the location of all of the laboratory safety equipment, how to use it, as well as the two exits. Learning how to use the laboratory safety equipment before doing any experiments is imperative. If you perform any experiments before you have learned about the laboratory safety equipment and have an accident, you will be unable help yourself.
