We saw this film at school, decades ago in the last millenium. Already old back then, but good film.

And if it happens, do not despair, just duck and cover and don't forget your briefcase against the initial flash :-?

Medical kit suggestions?

Lots of cheap ones advertised on Amazon, but which ones are good?

Those that you fill yourself. :03:
Get information on the Internet about recommended items for the region you are in, get a set and then complete it, replace the contents as needed. Included set-items often also have low quality. Dont depend on default sets.


The regional fpcus is important. For exmaple in the US I see many kits including stuff you use for treating wounds from shots. In Germany, certain such specific items are often not included.



Always never mentioned: a small mirror. You cannot treat yourself in the face if you cant see.

Otto Harkaman 08-12-23 06:25 AM

Well I agree the best would be to build yourself, good idea about the mirror and it could also be used for signalling. Do you have one put together now?

I am interested into looking at what is available.

* I agree most seem to be crap, but is there a good purchase out there?

em2nought 08-12-23 12:12 PM

I'm paying attention because I need to carry a first aid kit soon, but I have no useful input.

I have seen a few of these first aid kit, what baffle me is that none of them had first aid kit for teeth in the kit.

Having been in the demolition trade for years, I built my own 1st Aid Kit.
It's packed into 2 metal Ammo cans.

Couldn’t agree more.

I usually pack a roll of gauze some large gauze pads, an elastic bandage roll, tape, maybe some popsicles sticks and a wire splint, tourniquet, some bandaids. Antiseptics are a must just remember many have expiration dates.
