Home First Aid Kits
No matter how safe you think your home may be accidents can still happen. While most accidents are minor and many injuries require little more than a sterile bandage and little TLC having Home first Aid kits are still a good idea. While you can’t stock your first aid kit like a hospital emergency room having at least some useful medical supplies on hand just may help save someone’s life if the need arises.
Home First Aid Kits, should be well stocked with a few common medical supplies that can be used to keep a person as comfortable and as pain free as possible until help arrives or until you get that person into an emergency room. At a minimum, you are going to want to be staunch bleeding, immobilize a limb, and be able to clean and bandage a simple cut. Here are the main things you should consider keeping in a home emergency kit.
First Aid Book- It is difficult to think in an emergency so having a good first aid book that walks you through medical emergencies from stopping blood loss to what to do when someone is choking is the first thing your home first aid kit should contain. While you can often find substitutes for some of the actual supplies, there isn’t any substitute for the knowledge you may need.
Assorted Bandages- All different sizes and shapes from square band-aids to small butterfly band-aids.
Hydrogen peroxide- Hydrogen peroxide is inexpensive and can serve as a wound cleaner helping to keep infection at bay.
Aluminum foil blanket- An aluminum foil blanket folds up small and can be used both to cover someone to help keep them from going into shock and to apply pressure to large bleeding wound as you won’t want your hands to come in direct contact with the wound.
Some other items include:
Various Sized Gauze pads
Antibacterial cream
roll of adhesive tape
Pair of rust resistant scissors
Pair of rust resistant tweezers
Plastic bags
Latex gloves
Stretch bandages
sling
Hand Sanitizer
While having a home first aid kit that contains the medical supplies listed above isn’t going to be everything you need should a serious disaster occur at least you have the basic supplies to begin dealing with most normal home emergencies. This may be more important than you think because there may be situations where medical supplies become scarce and having even simple tools may increase your chances of survival.
On the other hand having the listed objects in your home and all kept together will help you to deal with most of the minor emergencies that occurs in the home easily and effortlessly. Just make sure that you keep your home first aid kits stocked at all times and you will feel better knowing that you are ready to handle life’s little emergencies.
