Pt 1: “Level 2″ First Aid Kit Review by Nutnfancy
Part 1 of 5 ////////////////////
My experiences in the outdoors led me to my Level 2 First Aid Kit concept. More capable in depth and breadth than my also-reviewed “Level 1″ First Aid Kit, my Level 2 kit will weigh more and be bulkier but can better handle medium medical emergencies. The kit shown focuses on capabilities in ROL (Rule of Law) situations where the priority is to stabilize the patient and effect transport to better facilities and care (when necessary). In group or vehicular outings, the increased size and weight of a typical Level 2 is more do-able. Similar to the Level 1, this kit still has an emphasis on stemming blood loss, disinfecting, pain stoppage, wound dressing, and bandage exchange. Size and weight are still players in this 5 lb kit and I don’t achieve the capabilities of Level 3 or Paramedic-level lifesaving kit. As I say in the vid, that type of kit requires medical training and its use comes with extra liability and concerns as a first responder. However I have the Level 2 kit shown has handled my encountered medical situations adequately and absolutely blows away any other kits I’ve encountered along this POU. Components of the kit and the foundational “Nutnfancy” philosophies involved are explained. An annotated list of my typical Level 2 Kit may be forthcoming (another project!). Compared to even a quality first aid kit, like ones from Adventure Medical Kits this version has more depth i.e. multiples of common use items which can better handle longer duration scenarios. It is difficult for makers like AMK to make kits to this level because of the markedly elevated cost in doing so (and then they won’t sell well because of that). As noted, my kits are transitional in nature and will include improved medical technologies that have merit and can improve or simplify my treatment capabilities. Handling medical emergencies on your adventures is your responsibility and help may be far away. You will also find that few people even carry a First Aid kit with this much capability and you will be the on-site medical expert since you’re prepared (been there). Having such a kit will minimize pain, injury, and maybe even save a life… possibly yours. Be prepared.

First Aid Kit – helpful tips from FreaknMissy
This is the 1st video of Los Angeles musician Missy (of FreaknMissy / Dogs of War) from Sherman Oaks. It was video-taped by her at her lockout. Missy shares what is inside one of her medium-size First Aid Kits. This is one that she carries in her car. This kit is still a “work in progress” and many items are still missing from the kit.
Missy does not claim to be an authority, but is rather sharing her method and style of how she made her medium size kit (she has kits of various sizes) in hopes that she might inspire others to be more prepared in cases of emergency. She is always hopeful for the best – but wants to be prepared for the worst.
If you have ANY QUESTIONS at all, please feel free to contact me here and ask me anything and hopefully I will be able to help. If you carry any of these items and you are not sure how to use them, it will not be as effective. So allow yourself to be informed.

72 HOUR KIT PART 1
My Blackhawk vest set up for strictly a 72 hour (3 day) event. Longer term event or potential longer even would necessitate the need for my extended stay gear and supplies which will be a later video.
