Best first aid kit for home and family
Keep one bigger kit in a spot every adult in the house knows, with room for the kid stuff you’ll add. From my research so far I’d start with the MyMedic MyFAK Large in the standard version, plus a genuine C-A-T tourniquet from North American Rescue, bought separately. I haven’t bought or opened this one yet.
