ANATOMY OF A FIRST AID KIT

A well-stocked first aid kit is a handy thing to have… Always be prepared for emergencies:

  • Keep a First Aid Kit in your home and in your car.
  • Carry a First Aid Kit with you or know where you can find one.
  • Find out the location of First Aid Kits where you work.

First aid kits come in many shapes and sizes. You can purchase one from your local drug store, or you can make your own.  Make sure that you:-

  • Include any personal items such as medications and emergency phone numbers or other items your health-care provider may suggest.
  • Check the kit regularly.
  • Make sure the flashlight batteries work.
  • Check expiration dates and replace any used or out-of-date contents.

  1. This list is very concise. I am going to make sure my company has a well stocked and not to mention up to date kit.

  2. Having a well stocked First Aid Kit is very important. Also keeping a small kit of necessities in your car or purse is a good idea as well.
