oxygen masks
Airplane safety devices
Oxygen masks are devices worn over the nose and mouth to deliver supplemental oxygen.
They appear in medical settings for patients with breathing difficulties and on aircraft for emergencies: The flight attendant demonstrated how to secure the oxygen mask.
The standard safety instruction to secure your own mask before helping others has become a metaphor for prioritizing self-care.
