A note on first-aid kits


First-aid kits do come in various shapes and sizes but essentially carry the same items. The quantities of each determine the ideal use for the kit, whether for hiking, vehicle or domestic use. All first-aid items are available from most pharmacies and can be added if necessary. Many of the contents will also have a shelf life and replacement of expired or used contents will need to be frequently monitored. Some brands also supply refill packs.
