Quick Overview

The Guardian Survival Landscaper's First Aid Kit is a 103-piece, 10-unit workplace first aid kit for landscaping and tree-trimming crews, stocked for the cuts, scrapes, insect stings and eye irritation that come with outdoor work.

Supplies come in a plastic case with a gasket, sized to keep in a truck or trailer. Woven fabric bandages flex and grip on working hands. The kit adds aspirin, BZK antiseptic wipes, triple antibiotic ointment, insect sting relief wipes, a 1/2 oz eye wash and a 52-page full-color OSHA and ANSI compliant first aid and CPR guide. It carries no tourniquet or trauma dressings.

Bandages: 16 woven strips (1" x 3"), 8 woven knuckle, 8 woven fingertip and 6 woven patch bandages (2" x 3"), 38 in all. Wipes and medication: 20 aspirin tablets in ten 2-packs, 20 BZK antiseptic wipes, 10 triple antibiotic ointment packs and 10 insect sting relief wipes. Eye care: a 1/2 oz eye wash and 2 sterile eye pads. The case measures 7-11/16" x 4-9/16" x 2-3/8" and the kit weighs 0.99 lb. SKU URG-3636.

Keep one kit in each crew truck or trailer, open it on a set schedule and after each use, and check any dates printed on the components. Restock anything used before the truck rolls out again.

Field Application Steps

1. STAGE THE KIT: Keep one kit in each crew truck or trailer, or within reach of the yard work at home. At 0.99 lb in a plastic case with a gasket, it stows behind a seat or in a toolbox.

2. INVENTORY ON ARRIVAL: Open the case and check the 103 pieces against the contents list: woven bandages, aspirin, BZK antiseptic wipes, ointment packs, insect sting relief wipes, the eye wash, 2 sterile eye pads and the guide.

3. KNOW THE LAYOUT: Show every crew member where the case rides and what is inside, and keep the case closed between uses. Read the first aid and CPR guide before the season starts.

4. CHECK THE SCENE AND CALL: Shut down mowers, trimmers and blowers nearby before you help. Call 911 for any serious injury or a severe reaction to a sting.

5. OPEN THE CASE: Open the plastic case on a clean, flat surface such as a tailgate, and find the item you need by its name.

6. USE SUPPLIES BY NAME: Reach for the woven bandage, BZK antiseptic wipe, insect sting relief wipe or eye wash that fits the job. Use each one as its own packaging directs and as your training allows.

7. MEDICATION AND REPORTING: Follow the label on the aspirin tablets before anyone takes them. Tell the crew lead what happened and which supplies were used, and report the injury as your company requires.

8. RESTOCK THE CASE: Replace every item used and check any dates printed on the components. Close the case fully so the gasket seats before it goes back in the truck.
