How to Make a First Aid Kit

Try to keep your first aid kit small and simple. Stock it with multi-use items. Almost anything that provides good visibility of contents can be used for a household first aid kit.

• If your kit will be on the move, a water-resistant, drop-proof container is best.

• Inexpensive nylon bags, personal kits, fanny packs, or make-up cases serve very well.
• 
  
• You do not need to spend a lot of money on a fancy "medical bag." Use resealable sandwich or oven bags to group and compartmentalize items.
  
  
• Put wound supplies in one bag and medications in another.
