First Aid Kit Summer Session #1 – Universal Soldier (Buffy-Sainte Marie)

admin — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 09:05:33 +0000

This is our first session, for more info on the sessions check out http://thisisfirstaidkit.com

This protest song was written in the early sixties by Buffy Sainte-Marie. It’s about individual responsibility for war. We wanted to sing this song because, unfortunately, what Buffy sang about at her time is still is so true today and will probably be so for years to come. We changed the lyrics a bit to make it more relevant to today’s society.

Enjoy.

First Aid Kit Organization

admin — Tue, 27 Jan 2009 18:56:44 +0000

Today’s article is a timely one. In the middle of winter when one begins to think of spring cleaning. What better way to put first aid first than to organize your home first aid kit. As I was reading here, the first aid kit does not necessarily need to be in the bathroom, as so many have it stored. If they have a first aid kit, that is, and not just a medicine cabinet with some bandages stuffed in amongst the cosmetics, hair spray, and excess shampoos.

an excerpt from the article encourages us, “…the key to functional organization of any area, and especially one that can get as hard to manage as a household medicine cabinet, is to store items in a practical place, in accordance with who lives in your household…”

Begin to organize your first aid kit with these helpful, timely tips for first aid kit organization.

Stock your first-aid kit

- Idaho Statesman Edition Date: 01/15/09

A First Aid Kit is one item that hikers, climbers and back country backpackers can’t afford to forget.

A first-aid kit should contain:

- An easy-to-follow first-aid instruction booklet that explains how to handle basic problems.

- Assorted adhesive bandages, athletic tape and moleskin.

- Basic drugs and lotions, such aspirin, antiseptic, antacid tablets, sunscreen and any prescription medicines.

- Tweezers, a small mirror, razor blade or knife.

- A bee-sting kit, venom-extraction pump, wipes, plastic gloves and eye pads.

- For extended trips, you should consider packing additional items like extra bandages, drugs and ointments.
