• adhesive tape
• adhesive bandages in several sizes
• elastic bandage
• a splint
• antiseptic wipes
• liquid soap to wash injury and hand sanitizer, used with supervision, if hands are not visibly soiled or if no water is present;
• Water (two liters of sterile water for cleaning wounds or eyes);
• antibiotic ointment
• antiseptic solution (like hydrogen peroxide)
• hydrocortisone cream (1%)
• acetaminophen and ibuprofen
• extra prescription medications (if the family is going on vacation)
• Flexible roller gauze
• Triangular bandages
• Eye patch or dressing

• thermometer (Non-glass, non-mercury)
• tooth preservation kit
• plastic non-latex gloves (at least 2 pairs)
• flashlight and extra batteries
• blanket (stored nearby)
• Tissues
• Wipes
• Individually wrapped sanitary pads to contain bleeding of injuries
• Adhesive strip bandages, plastic bags for cloths, gauze, and other materials used in handling blood
• Flashlight
• Emergency medications
• List of emergency contacts (i.e., location information and phone numbers for the Poison Center, nearby hospitals or other emergency care clinics)
After you've stocked your first-aid kits:
• Read the entire first-aid manual to make sure you understand how to use the contents of your kits. (If your kids are old enough to understand, review the manuals with them.)
• Store first-aid kits in places that are out of children's reach but easily accessible for adults.
• Check the kits regularly. Replace missing items or medicines that may have expired.
• Check the flashlight batteries to make sure they work.
• If you're flying, be sure to pack the first-aid kit in your checked luggage. Many of the items won't be permitted in your carry-on bags.
