I have, in a burst of productivity, redone my first aid kit.
Thrown out the old/borderline expired stuff, added some items for the kind of incidents I know I have and so on. I have
- 1x pair nitrile gloves, for dealing with anyone else’s mess if need be
- 2x alcohol disinfectant wipes
- 1x roll strapping tape
- 1x gauze dressing pad
- 1x small bottle of Betadine
- 1x box GOOD bandaids
- 1x small roll Hydralyte tabs (5 doses) for the “I’ve been pukey, now dehydrated AF” experience
- 1x box Panadol
- 1x tube aloe vera gel for burns
- 1x pack throat lozenges, my preferred
- 1x pair tweezers
- 1x pair scissors
- 1x eye drop guide thingy. I hate putting drops in, I flinch away if anything gets too near my eyes, but if I put this over the neck of an eye-drop bottle it’s less of an issue. I’ve had it for years, but now it’s in a known spot
- 1x thermometer
Please weigh in, DT? Have I forgotten anything, or put something redundant in?
