When I wrote my original post on how to prepare for a disaster I didn’t know we were going to have two major hurricanes go through only a few weeks later. I will still be writing posts on emergency kits and the like each month. I’m not a prepper person, but I believe that we should all have basic supplies in our home in case of emergency. Here is a list that I have put together for a basic first aid kit. Am I missing anything? Let me know in the comments!
Here are some items in a basic first aid kit.
- Sterile Gloves
- Cleaning agent for wounds
- Antibiotic ointment
- Various sized adhesive bandages
- Thermometer
- Aspirin/pain reliever
- Anti-diarrhea medication
- Antacid
- Laxatives
- Tweezers
- Scissors
- Compress dressings
- Adhesive cloth
- space blanket
- breathing barrier
- cold compress
- hydro cortisone ointment
- rolled bandage
- sterile gauze pads
- first aid booklet
- tape
- hydro cortisone ointment
- sunburn treatment
- cold pack
What would you include in your own kit?
