Trauma Kits – Portable First Aid

Online Stores 1 Comment

Trauma Kit

If you work in a place where accidents are a real possibility (e.g., construction sites or chemical plants), the importance of having a trauma kit close at hand is tough to overstate. Without a good trauma kit, administering first aid can be all but impossible.

First aid is serious business, since it could mean the difference between sustaining a serious injury and walking away from an accident relatively unscathed. That being said, many trauma kits being sold today simply aren’t up to snuff.

Any good trauma kit should include, among other items, a wide array of bandages, antibacterial and sanitizing products, compresses, burn dressing and gel, eye wash, gauze, gloves, a thermometer, a tourniquet, and a split. Other items included in a quality trauma kit might include peroxide, biohazard bags and ammonia inhalant.

Of course, you also want your trauma kit to come in a durable box; otherwise, you could end up losing essential first aid items. You do not, however, want the box to be too bulky, which can often lead to a loss of portability. It’s also a plus when the box is water and dust resistant.

Finally, if you work in an industry that falls within the jurisdiction of ANSI, you’ll need to make sure your trauma kit meets their standards, particularly ANSI Standard Z308.1.2003. If you fail to do so, you could be putting your own health and safety at risk, as well as that of any coworkers that might depend on you.
