It is very common that during a disaster, you or a loved one, or someone else around you, will get hurt. So having a first aid kit should be on your must to have list!
Why a first aid kit is so much important?
First of all at time of a disaster or when you find yourself in survival mode, there’s a big chance you are going to get hurt by elements of nature and objects around you.
Second, don’t expect to find medical care at reach! Actually you won’t know whether emergency intervention units will be able to reach you, or if they even heard about you! So you will put in your mind that you will need to rely on yourself only!
Third, there might be someone of your family members or someone else around you who has some special medical condition which might can wait for a couple of minutes only in case of lack of special medication or treatment! So you won’t japardize their lives waiting for professional medical intervention!
Fourth, even if you were by yourself and you didn’t get hurt by elements of nature or objects surrounding you, in survival times you will find yourself forced to do some heavy manual work, maybe you will have to lift some heavy rock, saw a branch of a tree, jump into a river, break a widow, fight a wild animal, etc… All these activities mostly will get you hurt in a way or another, especially if you are not used to manual work!
Nowadays most people the toughest thing they do is lifting weights at the gym!
So as you can see there’s no way to not have a first aid kit!
Below we have compiled a list of aid kits that you can get from my store
Pre-made first aid kits can come in different shapes, sizes, and colors. And each contains a different number of pieces.
And to choose the right one for you, you must look for the most easily to carry kit, as well as the one that has what you think is better for you and your family.
You should think about the kit that has all what you need for you and your family medical problems!
