First Aid

Emergency care equipment, both what you carry on you and what stays in the vehicle. The department covers CAT tactical tourniquets, haemostatic dressings and gauze, bleeding kits, TPAK thoracic decompression needles from North American Rescue, emergency eye wash and complete individual kits. Sub-categories separate immobilisation and rescue, dressings and care, and pre-assembled kits. This equipment assumes training: a badly applied tourniquet is dangerous, and a kit bought without knowing how to use it does not replace a first aid course. We list exact references so expired consumables can be replaced.
