72 Hour Emergency Kit — #6  First Aid
 

     Never put anything in your first aid kit you don’t know how to use.  First responders never seem to have enough materials in an emergency unless they have a professional kit.  So, why not put your kit together where the professionals go for their supplies.
     Look in the yellow pages under “First Aid Supplies”, or “Medical Equipment and Supplies”, and ask if they wholesale to paramedics.  Ask if they can help you custom build your kit based on your space, knowledge, and budget.  In Salt Lake City, Stat Medical Supply at 4894 So. 300 W. #2, will help you do just that.  Don’t forget to include special medications or items your family members uniquely need.
