  5. Dissection Safety • Scalpel Safety • Hold a scalpel as you would a pencil • Cut with a downward motion but never push down very hard to make a cut (If extreme pressure is required, you have a dull scalpel or require a different instrument)

  6. Dissection Safety • Scalpel Safety • Cut away from the body and away from other students • Do not use excessive force when working with sharp instruments • Use scissors instead of scalpels wherever possible
