Maintaining the First Aid Kit

It is the responsibility of a first aid provider to maintain their first aid kit. It should contain the supplies needed for dealing with common emergencies.

Your kit may be different, so use this list as a reference for any items you may need to add.

Whether you buy a first aid kit or put one together, make sure it has all the items you may need.

  • ● Remember to keep your supplies in a sturdy, watertight container that is clearly labeled.
  • ● Make sure you know where your first aid kit is.
  • ● Replace any items you use from the kit so that you have them in another emergency.
  • ● Check the kit before work to make sure you have all of your supplies.
