There are many levels of "preparedness." Although food and water seem to be at the top of everyone's list, emergencies and disasters can rob us of many other essentials that we take for granted. Medical care is one such essential that should not be overlooked when preparing for the future. This FUNDAMENTALS first aid/medical kit has been specifically designed to provide essential products for coping with physical injury and can serve a variety of needs in various emergency first aid situations.
Developed for groups of 1 to 10 people on trips of 1 to 21 days, the Fundamentals First Aid Kit contains wound management and blister materials. This kit includes the EZ Care™ system, which organizes supplies and instructions into clear vinyl (antibacterial coated), injury specific compartments. It is designed to help you quickly and confidently administer first aid. The bright blue main pouch is highly visible and accented with reflective piping to make it easy to find in low-light situations. The unique EZ Care cards located in the injury specific pockets provide quick and simple-to-understand “visual” instructions. The nylon pouch features water-resistant zippers and webbing loops to allow attachment to a pack or a belt. It is designed so it can be opened on a belt without spilling the contents. Zipper extenders allow you to open the kit while wearing gloves.
Wilderness medicine goes beyond blisters and bandaids. Adventure Medical Kits are designed with the wisdom and experience of Dr. Eric Weiss, an emergency department doctor who climbs, treks, kayaks, dives and does the same things you do. Dr. Weiss is considered a leading authority on modern wilderness and outdoor medicine.
Ideal for families, backpackers and campers. If you are ever more than one day away from help, this is the minimum you should carry.
