First Aid Kit – helpful tips from FreaknMissy

admin — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 09:05:18 +0000

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.

ITEMS that will be included in the future to this particular kit are: nail polish, instant cold compress kit, bigger gauze wraps and band-aids, hemostats, tweezers, antacids, hydra gel, burn gels, white thread, suture packets, penknife, straw, lighter, matches, bandanna, pen, marker, (2) water packets, water purification tablets, baking soda, identification.

CPR training video – Latest Guidelines, First Aid Safetycare Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation DVD

admin — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 19:33:34 +0000

Without oxygen being passed from the lungs to the blood stream and then pumped around the body by the heart a person will die. When a person suffers cardiac arrest their heart stops beating, they lose consciousness, they stop breathing, and blood will not circulate. Unless they receive prompt first aid attention until medical or ambulance help arrives they will suffer irreparable brain damage and die within minutes.

This program looks at the technique for performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation on adults, in accordance with the current resuscitation guidelines. The program covers:

•Basic Life Support (BLS) procedure
•How to conduct CPR on an adult casualty
•How to deliver Rescue Breaths
•How to deliver chest compressions
•How to use a Automated External Defibrillator (AED)
•CPR with two rescuers
•Rescuer health and hygiene

The program is suitable for use in any workplace and has been designed specifically as a refresher course and training aid for people who have already been or are being trained in CPR.

If you would like to preview the entire CPR DVD from us, please email us at Safetycare and we would be pleased to send you the full version for your to preview and assess.
