First Aid Kit Contents

So what goes into a first aid kit?
First you need to put all these things in a bag or box so that it won't scatter. I used a transparent plastic box with a handle so i can carry it around when needed. Also I place it in a conspicuous place where i can easily find it when needed. 


Allow me to share with you the contents of my first aid kit box.

1. Adhesive dressings (plasters) in assorted sizes
2. Sterile dressings ( 2 medium, 2 large and 2 extra large)
3. Sterile Eye pads
