You never know when a medical emergency will strike — at home, on the road, or at work. Having a basic emergency bag on hand can help you stay ready.
Here’s what you should include:
-
Disposable gloves
-
CPR mask or shield
-
Sterile gauze and bandages
-
Alcohol wipes and antiseptics
-
Scissors and tweezers
-
Pain relievers (like ibuprofen)
-
Instant cold packs
-
Emergency contact list
-
Flashlight with extra batteries
-
Personal medications and allergy info
Store this bag in your car, home, or office. Check it every few months to replace expired items.
Preparedness is peace of mind. Don’t wait until something happens — plan ahead.
