[NSRCA-discussion] FIRST AID KIT

Wed Aug 9 13:43:37 AKDT 2006

Hi Scott 
 Hi Linda
     Good Idea     
 I have bandaged many many fingers and hands. Many before the emergency room. 
I know how important it is to have what we need when we need to help someone.

 There have been times the first aid box disappeared.. (?)     We are setting 
up to replace it now.  IT is more important to replace it then worry it might 
disappear again.

 We  all   carry a smaller first aid kit in our field box. 

ALL fields should have Gauze   Adhesive tape  Band-Aids/large and small    
..at the field  at all times. A metal box or in the impound box  First AID

 I think we have used almost everything in our kit at some time at the 
field..We even post an emergency phone number for the park dept.

   We also have a rule to have a FULL first aid box at the impound for all 
contest events. 
Important information.

I believe Scott has a good starter plan. It carries some larger bandages that 
are necessary for Prop and aircraft injuries.  

I carry a J&J number 8162, it is usually found on school busses and places 
where there are a lot of people. I carry it due to the large assortment of Items 
including gloves and eyewash. I may have gone a little over the hill yet 
after my incident I am a believer in a quick response. 

Sincerely
Linda A. Carnes

Please do not use ace bandages.. There is a issue with swelling...

Most all your store kits can not handle lacerations or cuts caused by the RC 
plane..

we had one at KCRC and it fell apart after the first use...

Note.. even the Johnson & Johnson kit that Wal-Mart carries at $10 is better 
than no kit at all....  Its not going to cover as major of an injury as the 
below list, but add an ace bandage and some 4X4's and its respectable. (and 
easilly available.... )

Okay,

After this weekend accident at the Knoxville pattern meet and people showing 
a interest in the kit I put together at our field here is a list and some 
pics.. I know there is other healthcare people out there looking at this, This a 
functional kit that I have spent may hours/day out on the wildland fire lines 
with and other activities in a fannypack. I have just downsized it for the RC 
field.

If there is enough interest I can get kits made up with or with out the bag 
and send them out for cost plus shipping.

Here is the list with QTY.

1 -  1 inch x 10 yard tape
5 -  5x9 Curity dressing
12- 4x4's
5 -  3 inch Kling
3 - 7x12 Trauma dressing
1 - CPR Mask
1 - 4 oz. Cool Gel
4 - Triangle bandages  

With out the bag cost is approx $ 30.00 plus S&H and with bag I'll have to 
check.
There is room to add stuff like bandaids and first aid spray ect.

Not that much when you think your life might depend on it..

Scott Anderson
