The Ten Design Features of First Aid Paks
1. SUFFICIENT SUPPLIES:
Supplies and equipment are designed to meet the three “HOWS”.
a. How many people?
b. How far from medical help?
c. How long?
Designing to the THREE “HOWS” provides our FIRST AID PAKS with “enough stuff”.
2. STATE-OF-THE-ART:
Supplies and equipment have the latest improvements that other first aid kits do not have. Examples include ICE TAPE® to replace crush cold packs and KOLD WRAP® one step sterile bandages for burns.
3. PROBLEM-ORIENTED FIRST AID SYSTEM:
The kit is divided into numbered modules, each designed to solve a specific first aid problem. An example, MODULE # 2 is for minor cuts. You pull out only the module you need to solve the problem. This is the unique feature and our design that sets it apart from all other first aid kits. We call it: ”FIRST-AID-BY-THE-NUMBERS”®.
4. INTEGRATED MANUAL:
The easy to read manual is organized into chapters by first aid problem, each corresponding to the identically numbered and color-coded MODULE. For example, MODULE # 2 = CHAPTER # 2. A Quick Reference Summary is part of each chapter for a fast review. Reading the manual provides a review of first aid and the kit.
5. EXPANDABLE:
Our first aid kits are not in tightly packed plastic boxes that do not provide the user with extra space for additional supplies or equipment. FIRST AID PAK modules have space to add favorite additional items and allow the user to individualize the modules to meet diverse needs.
6. USER FRIENDLY:
Highly water resistant, most versions come with reflectors for emergency night identification. The manuals are waterproof, and in large readable type. The outside bags are of soft rugged fabric or tough plastic cases designed for stressed environments. Modular design aids even the untrained or younger caregiver.
7. AUTHORITATIVE:
The manual is regularly edited by a team of specialists from a wide variety of medical fields, including emergency medicine. The editor is a board-certified surgeon. References are provided for additional information.
8. RE-INVENTORY SYSTEM:
Each FIRST AID PAK comes with a system to record supplies and equipment used. Such a system avoids a depleted first aid kit, the most common problem with first aid kits. Replacement of modules or contents is easy and discounted via www.firstaidpak.com.
9. PERSONAL PHARMACY MODULE:
In comprehensive kits, a separate module is provided for medications. The manuals have information and recommendations for meds and a log for recording expiration dates, and what meds the user adds to the kit.
10. LONG SHELF LIFE:
We design to a five year shelf life objective.
