I live in a fairly rural area, about 45 minutes from the nearest emergency room. I have an old first aid kit that is years out of date & want to update it. I would guess that the most likely issue would be from a chain saw accident, maybe I do something stupid with my lawnmower (72" zero turn), accidental gunshot (there is a lot of shooting around here and of course we shoot), horse wreck, natural disaster (tornado probably), or car accident.
I am looking at the Chinook Medical Home & Vehicle kit, https://www.chinookmed.com/01374/hom...html#!contents, or the Plus version of the same kit, https://www.chinookmed.com/01375/hom...html#!contents.
My goal is to have something I can easily grab & take with me if I have to jump into the tornado shelter, if neighbors call, or if something happens to me or my wife. My wife & I will be taking a first aid class once we find one that is close enough to attend. I have taken many classes over the years ranging from 4 hours to 24 hours and have basic understanding of general first aid.
I would appreciate any/all input regarding a good kit and any classes in east/east-central Texas.
Thanks.
