Everyone should have a well-stocked first-aid kit at home, in the car, and in the workplace. You may also want to stock a portable kit (a box or small bag) that can be taken to the site of an emergency.
It is important to check your kit regularly to restock items that have been used, and to replace items that are out-of-date.
The contents of the kit vary depending on the number of people it is designed to protect, as well as its intent for use. Recommended contents of a first-aid kit include the following:

Be sure any member of your family who has special needs wears a Medic Alert bracelet or necklace at all times. Applications are available in most pharmacies.
