This post is dedicated to Rehana's campaign, urging everyone to have their first aid kit prepared. I do have first aid kit in a 'pouch', a free gift I got after I bought something (couldn't recalled). It's very basic. So, I want to 'upgrade' my first aid kit by putting more first aid essentials in it. It was not possible to do so without getting a new home for the items first. Thus, I bought a first aid BOX, which was the last piece on display. {Am I the last one here, getting my box ready?} At this stage, I just transferred the existing items in the pouch (notice the worn/aged packaging) into the box:
- Scissors
- Soap wipes
- Cleaning wipes
- Adhesive strip
- Non-woven sponge
- Mouth-to-mouth mask
- Safety pins
- Bandages
- First Aid information booklet
First Aid Box RM8.90 (Billion)
What next?
Search in the internet (reliable sites) for must-have items in a first aid box and buy them. From my initial search, the sites listed different items in their must-have lists. So, I have to do some thinking and decide on my needs.
Updates: I'm considering to add these items as suggested by The Oranised Housewife
