20 Must Have Items For Your First Aid Kit
First aid kits are a must in every home because they keep you ready for minor emergencies like cuts, scrapes, and other injuries at home. They can also hold supplies for disasters like ice storms or power outages. Here are the things you should keep in your first aid kit, whether you buy it or make it yourself.
- An antiseptic
- Adhesive bandage
- Gauze dressing
- Crêpe bandages
- Safety pins
- Tweezers
- Scissors
- Cotton balls and Q-tips
- A thermometer
- Mosquito cream or spray
- Antiseptic cream
- Petroleum jelly or other lubricants
- Painkillers
- Pain reliever spray, gel or balm
- Antihistamines
- Paracetamol
- Antacid
- Pad or tampons

You should check your first-aid kit periodically to ensure that the items in it work and to replace expired or used supplies. Consider taking a first-aid course. Prepare your children for medical emergencies in an age-appropriate manner.
Also, keeping an emergency contact list in your first aid kit is always a good idea. Even though you can store numbers on your smartphone, you might not have the number for your local police or fire department. Also, you might want to include the telephone numbers of your physician, paediatrician, and poison control. Thus, you can contact anyone you need quickly when you need them.
