First aid kits are an essential piece of equipment to have in all public places to ensure that any minor injuries are treated effectively.
They provide effective treatment for both minor injuries, while acting as an practical interim measure for more serious injuries until the emergency services arrive.
What makes a good first aid kit?
A good first aid kit includes everything to hand that may be required to deal with minor injuries. All products in the kit should be kept in date and ready to work effectively.
Examples of items for a first aid kit include multiple-sized dressings for different sized wounds, various sizes of plasters, multiple pairs of gloves, safety pins, scissors, eye patches, alcohol free wipes and an accident report book.
Depending on the environment in which the first aid kit is going to be located you may also need some specialist equipment added to your kit or have a specialist kit entirely. For example a burns first aid kit is likely to be found in a factory and a food hygiene first aid kit in a restaurant.
