Frequently Asked Questions About Our First Aid Kit for School Options
What Is in a First Aid Kit?
So, what should be in a first aid kit? Depending on the level of preparedness, you may want to have several types of first aid kits on hand:
- Trauma first aid kit
- Bleeding control kit (bleedstop)
- Shelter in place kit
- Evacuation kit
Each trauma bag is then equipped with the related bandages, medicines, and sometimes even long-shelf life food to meet the needs of the situation at hand.
Why is First Aid Important in Schools?
Not only can day to day activities occasionally lead to the need for a first aid kit schools, we sadly also recommend them so your students and staff alike feel prepared for the unknown events that may occur.
Many school nurse’s offices even have a first aid bench so the student (or even faculty member) have a comfortable place to rest while being treated. Shiffler offers several first aid bench styles so one is sure to fit your needs.
In terms of our evacuation safety tips, we recommend being proactive and stocking your schools with a first responder first aid kit trauma bag fully stocked. That ensures you will be prepared for whatever unfortunate, unpredictable event that may occur. You should also create an individual emergency and lockdown plan and store your first aid trauma kit accordingly.
Another type of first aid situation can be sudden vomiting. Thankfully, Shiffler offers Voban vomit absorption which quickly cleans up any unwanted smells and messes. It can be a very useful part of a school's first aid kit as well as for any maintenance department or facility department.
Do I need formal training before using first aid supplies in the classroom?
Although you do not have to be a trained first aider to use our first aid kits, we recommend that teachers receive training before using them. This is because this training will prepare you for any emergency and ensure you know what to do when a student has an epileptic fit or a large bruise on their leg.
Will I receive personal hygiene products in my first aid kit?
Some of our first aid kits are equipped with personal hygiene products and even food to improve your emergency preparedness. If you would like to personalize your first aid kit to include certain supplies, you can contact us, and we will help you create the perfect kit to help ensure school health.
Can I purchase a smaller first aid kit for the school classroom?
Absolutely! Having adhesive bandages, gauze pads, and alcohol swabs in the classroom can help teachers address any issues quickly. You can purchase a dedicated first aid cabinet to house these supplies for easier access. Moreover, we also have convenient portable kits that you can carry around on school trips.
Do the first aid kits come with an instructional manual?
You will receive an introductory first-aid booklet explaining the first aid supplies you have in your kit. However, you will need to receive formal training to learn how to use them.
What are some of the basic first aid supplies that I will need to include in my kit?
