First Aid Kits - A Must For Every Workplace.

Having a fully stocked first aid kit in your medical practice, aged care facility, hospital or any other workplace, could be what saves a patient’s life in an emergency situation.

Being able to provide fast and effective medical treatment in an unexpected situation is crucial. Most workplaces have first aid kits available but are you aware of what should be included in the kit?

First aid is relevant in all industries and is a legal Occupational Health and Safety requirement for all organisations. Each year, thousands of Australians complete first aid training for the purpose of meeting workplace pre-requisites. This type of training is supported by the use of a first aid kit.

An organised and properly stocked first aid kit can supply peace of mind in a medical emergency.

No matter the workplace, a first aid kit will provide you with assistance for:

Cuts, Abrasions, Open wounds, Amputations and Scratches
Fractures, Strains, Sprains, Dislocations and Bruises
Eye, Nose and Mouth Injury
Splinters, Stings and Bites
Heat or Cold Related Injuries
