There's some festive first aid advice on offer from St John Ambulance to help Island residents avoid spoiling their Christmas and new year break.
The charity's issued a summary of how to treat mishaps in the home - from burns and shocks in the kitchen to injuring yourself playing with new gadgets and toys.
Across the UK around 80,000 people will go to hospital over the festive holiday period - that's almost the population of the Isle of Man!
Children under five and people over 65 are most liable to have an accident in the home.
So be prepared and plan ahead, is the advice from St John Ambulance co-ordinator in the Island Phil Bennett:
Joanna Simpson's mother 'instrumental' in introduction of UK's new restriction zones
People encouraged to have their say on draft Code of Practice ahead of consultation deadline
'Please look at apprenticeship framework' is business' plea to next government
Andreas Commissioners wants to see new speed buffer zones across parish
