Could Someone Help Me Acquire A Decent First Aid Kit Please?
I want to give a single gentleman a basic first aid kit for his new home.
Either a decent all in box, or a list of essential items would be helpful, thanks.

I, too, would make your own. Get a “Tupperware” box and stock it with what you think he might need the most. Favourite has got to be a box of plasters, some antiseptic, cotton wool, scissors and a few dressings & bandages. Look at the contents of the ready-made ones which are available everywhere and tweak what you put together to suit. You could for instance include some newly-bought painkillers, which you’ll never get in a ready-made kit as they’re considered medicines.
All first-aid kits should be tailored to meet the circumstances in which they’re likely to be needed. You’re not looking at a fix-all full kit with which he can rush out and administer first-aid to someone, just something to deal with those knocks, cuts and scrapes we all get around the home.
That’s a good, practical idea you’ve had there.

I would also say the red cross website as you know any profit will be spent in a decent way, Either that or make up one of your own ,mine is in a plastic kitchen tub.
you will need wipes, plasters, gauze, tweezers, gloves(if any one else needs treatment) thermometer, safety pins, sterile dressings, bandages, tape. I can’t think of anything else off the top of my head.

I would definitely make your own – that way you can personalize it. The video series in the source link shows you all the stuff to put in a first aid kit. Great gift idea!

I would think that most larger drugstores would probably carry them already assembled. If you would like to make one yourself, here’s a good site with information.http://www.essortment.com/all/firstaidki…

Most auto parts, home improvement or military surplus store will carry one. Red Cross website also carries them.

I’m not sure where you live but if you live in Canada call St. John’s Ambulance. They have great kits and I think they’re less than $100.
