Check your First Aid kit
Have you checked your home or work first aid kit lately? Simple Instruction can help – if you would like supplies or a quote on a full first aid kit please contact us.
First Aid kits should be checked regularly to ensure that there are sufficient supplies in the kit when it is required. Under State and Territory legislation first aid kits are required in all workplaces.
First aid kits should be stored in a location clearly marked with a first aid sign. A regular check of contents is required to ensure that when an emergency occurs, there are enough bandages and other first aid supplies available.
A well-stocked first-aid kit, kept in easy reach, is a necessity in every home or workplace. Having supplies gathered ahead of time will help you handle an emergency quickly.
First Aid kits will vary depending on the number of employees and even what industry you may be working in. The larger the workplace, the larger the kit will need to be. State and Territory governments have codes of practice or guidleines on all aspects of providing first aid in the workplace, as well as the requirements for a frist aid course.
