First-aid kits under the microscope

Article Abstract:

Home first-aid kits are not covered by the same rules that apply to those used in the work-place and many of them lack essential and important items, such as too few dressings. A good first-aid kit can be assembled for the home for about 22 pounds sterling and this is the best option. Of the commercial first-aid kits available, a best buy is the Superdrug First Aid Kit, retailing at 8.49 pounds sterling. The kit is well-packed and contains most essential items. Other first-aid kits are evaluated.
