We often overlook first aid kits when equipping a rig, but having the right supplies is crucial for our safety. Last month, I had to use our kit for a minor injury, and it was a reminder of how vital it’s to check those supplies regularly. What do others recommend including in their kits to ensure we’re ready for anything?
, I can’t believe how many rigs skip over first aid kits! Last summer, we had a similar incident and it made me realize we need more than just the basics — like a good trauma dressings and splints. I’d also suggest including a CPR mask; it’s a small addition but could be a lifesaver.
Totally agree! Checking supplies monthly’s key. I also added some burn cream after a recent incident — it’s been a lifesaver.
