Quick Overview

The First Aid Only Emergency Response Bag is a 224-piece first aid kit for workplace safety teams, with supplies split into treatment packs by injury type so a responder pulls only the pack the moment calls for.

The fabric bag carries by its handle or shoulder strap and is wall mountable. Inside, separate treatment packs cover burns, wounds, bleeding, eye injuries, bloodborne pathogens, CPR and sprains, and each pack lists its items' intended use. The bloodborne pathogen pack holds a disposable gown, an eye and face shield, spill clean-up powder, a biohazard scoop and germicidal wipes. A first aid guide and a scissor complete the bag.

Sized for 50 people, the bag is OSHA compliant and carries an ANSI 2021, Class B designation. The bleeding control pack holds a windlass tourniquet, a 1" x 18" backup tourniquet, a 4" x 4" NuStat hemostatic gauze pad, a Hema-Seal 8" x 10" trauma pad and four 5" x 9" trauma pads. Other packs add a 4 ounce eyewash, two 4" x 5" cold packs, a 4.25" x 24" padded flexible splint and 10 nitrile exam gloves. SKU FAO-91170.

Mount the bag on a wall or stage it where your safety team can reach it, and inspect each treatment pack on a set schedule and after every use. Check any dates printed on the components, and restock only the packs that were opened before the bag returns to service.

Field Application Steps

1. STAGE THE BAG: Mount the bag on a wall or set it in a marked spot your safety team can reach from the work area. Keep the handle and shoulder strap clear so the bag comes down in one move.

2. INVENTORY ON ARRIVAL: Check the bag against the contents list of 224 pieces, pack by pack. Confirm the bleeding control, burn, eye, bloodborne pathogen, CPR, sprain and wound care supplies are all present before the bag goes into service.

3. LEARN THE PACK LAYOUT: Walk your team through the treatment packs for burns, wounds, bleeding, eye injuries, bloodborne pathogens, CPR and sprains. Each pack lists its items' intended use, so responders learn which pack to pull for which injury.

4. CHECK THE SCENE AND CALL: Check the scene for hazards before you approach the injured person. Call 911 or activate your site's emergency plan, then carry the bag to the person by its handle or shoulder strap.

5. OPEN AND GLOVE UP: Open the bag and take out the CPR and protection pack. Put on a pair of its nitrile exam gloves before you reach for any other pack or item.

6. PULL THE PACK YOU NEED: Take out only the treatment pack the moment calls for, such as the bleeding control, burn care or eye care pack. Use each item as its own packaging directs and as your training allows.

7. REPORT AND CLEAN UP: Tell arriving EMS what happened and which items were used. For a blood spill, use the bloodborne pathogen pack as its packaging directs, and place waste in a biohazard bag as your site's procedure requires.

8. RESTOCK BY PACK: Note which treatment packs were opened and restock each one from the contents list. Check any dates printed on the components, then return the bag to its wall or staging spot.
