Grab the checklist here 😀 mailchi.mp/jen-chapin/firstaidkit

@stacyrussell460 2 года назад

Couple of extras we keep in the first aid kit is sanitary products (pads, tampons & wet wipes). Yeah, my girls usually pack their own in their bags, but sometimes you may need a lighter option or so on. Having those have proven to be very helpful.

@Jen-Chapin 2 года назад

Very good tips!

@tracydimond3759 11 месяцев назад

I have some pantyliners i keep for possible injuries now. I'm a diabetic with neuropathy in my legs and feet. One day i was walking back from a garden my husband was putting in and i thought i'd just brushed past some random item and went inside. When my husband came inside he saw blood dripping from my leg. I jabbed myself pretty deep. I didn't feel any pain whatsoever, though. All this happened when covid first brought everything to a stand still. I didn't have any 2x2's, 3x3's, etc. but found a stray box of panty liners. I just cut them in half and we treated my wound at home until i could get into my doctor.

@darniataylor7749 2 года назад

Great video! My kids are 20 & 21 and I still keep a fully stocked first aid kit. It always amazes me how many people don't even have simple bandages in their homes.

@barbkelzenberg2394 2 года назад

What an interesting video. Thanks for sharing this. If you want to get rid of the packaging just cut off the back of the box with dosage and directions and put that in the box with the medicines. Nice job, Jen. 🌺

@sazgho7203 2 года назад

I made a little make up bag - really small for when my daughter turned 11 ;) band aids, a couple of sanitary pads and a couple of painkillers - I made sure the bag didn’t look anything special and it was just for the bottom of her school bag.

@Yololove247 2 года назад

I love these new budget friendly videos Jen. Economy is so hard right now.

@rosemarydoran9907 2 года назад

Ingot it in a couple different sizes (widths) at Walmart.

@amybell3922 2 года назад

Great tips! I've been in the medical field around 20 years, I would also keep all medications in their complete packaging if possible. Because it not only has it's uses but dosing,warnings,expiration dates and other important information. I am also working on getting a first aid kit together 🙂

@cooking_the_books 2 года назад

Love this! I put together a first aid kit for road trips using DT stuff. The smaller sizes are so perfect for travel.

@hannahkayee831 2 года назад

I made one for travel too, all dollar tree stuff.

@mtherfnprincess 2 года назад

I go through entire containers of Vaseline all the time. We use it for so many things, especially in the winter. I also use naproxin for everything headache cramps, back ache. I remember the crushed pills in applesauce or peanut butter. I still do that for the niblings

@sarahlee8508 2 года назад

I did this for my daughter when her and her husband got stationed in Japan. She loved it. And of course mama included stuff that she wouldn't of thought of.

@DianaTx361 2 года назад

Great idea Jen! I need to organize our over the counter meds and see what expired.

@lynnehampton1777 2 года назад

Hi Jen. Great idea for a video. I try to keep as many things that you mentioned in my home. You have the best vidros. Thank you. Take care

@frugaled5187 2 года назад

We also have a finger splint in ours!

@christinaorourke8913 2 года назад

This is a very thorough kit! Thank you. I have bought Midol and use it for headaches now. Works great. I also gave memories of my mom crushing Asprin (when you could still give it to children) between spoons adding a little sugar and water. I'm going through my kit and checking dates and adding a few Mort items. Thanks!☺

@morganchapman2150 2 года назад

I think Midol and Excedrin have the same ingredients in them. And also Goody powders. Acetaminophen, caffeine, and asprin I think.

@joiviolette5978 2 года назад

Definitely helpful to me! I have a meds basket we use daily with vitamins and such but I wanting to put together a 1st aid kit for the bathroom. Our kiddos are older now so not so much falls and scrapes. I just like to be prepared. I have my elderly mother with us and I just want to be more organized and prepared.

@bajoy273 2 года назад

Yes to preparing ahead of time. There's nothing worse than being at the pharmacy waiting for something and someone walks in, coughing hard and then asking 'Do you guys have a Covid test and also NyQuil?' Makes me want to have instant hazmat powers! Btw, an oxymeter is also good to have these days. (Definitely not available at DT though 😉)

@Sarawarawara- Год назад

Imagine the poor pharmacy workers who see stuff like that everyday…

@tessarmitage1813 2 года назад

I really appreciated this video and will use it to make a kit. Thanks Jen!

@stacyrussell460 2 года назад

This kit is awesome! We do a similar checklist before our camping trips every year. Because when you're in the middle of the woods, it's incredibly useful having an updated first aid kit.

@lisamartin3346 2 года назад

I thought this was an excellent topic for a video. I had no idea what should be kept in a first aid kit. Keep coming with those ideas! Thanks

@melaniesilas9313 Год назад

Your post was so helpful. I just went to dollar tree two days ago but for my garden items but I will be getting my first aid items from there. You have been a great help to me. Can't wait for another post

@dawngroothoff8934 2 года назад

Love this! We need to update our stuff. Do you remember the red stuff that our parents and grandparents used to put on our cuts. And i remember my grandfather using butter for burns.

@bnbtemple5936 2 года назад

Mercurochrome! 😊

@pastorgg1 2 года назад

Love this. Friends, if you’re in Canada, and have an emergency, please be kind to our health care professionals. They are doing the best they can. Our health care is struggling very badly right now.

@bsrk3170 2 года назад

I have made similar kits when my sons went to college. Usually had to refill every year. When they called me complaining that they or their roomies were sick I reminded them of what they had. The only thing I added was a couple of handfuls of Chap Stick.

@TracyShead-Stamey 2 года назад

Coban came in handy for me when I took the tip of my thumb off with a mandolin slicer. It can be wrapped tightly if you don't have any compression bandages. It's also inexpensive.

@kasey1 2 года назад

@Jennifr1966 Год назад

Thank you. We're moving out of a big, 2 story house into a tiny apartment due to finances, etc. I currently have two big baskets filled with gallon sized bags of various categories. Absolutely no where to put that! But when I saw your boxes and categories, I'm going right now to see if that will work. I never thought of little food containers!

@farfromaverage_5333 3 месяца назад

Wonderful video 👏🏽👏🏽 Very informative. Thank you 😊

@sandymyers1182 2 года назад

I have a first aid kit that I bought a few years ago and luckily have not had to use….usually when we get hurt, it’s the ER for us. Like finger going into the food processor. But I digress…..I am going to get that kit out and see what’s in there and if it’s any good . Thanks for the video…I bet it has gotten lots of people thinking

@erinj9642 2 года назад

Love this content. Probably not a dollar store type item but a little first aid booklet in the kit is helpful to have on hand when an emergency occurs.

@ragangrasso2201 2 года назад

Hiii Jen!! Loving all your new videos! Hope all is well with you and your family ❤️

@jill9606 2 года назад

I think even though the Halls bag doesn’t have a lot, it’ll still serve the purpose of helping you in a pinch until you can get more! Also, Big Lots has a good variety of meds too!

@sankey1988 2 года назад

Oh I learned this the hard way. A few summers ago my son closed the door on his thumb. We didn't have anything to wrap his hand in when we were taking him to the hospital. We had to wrap his hand in a tea towel 🙈 as soon as we got home I ordered a kit and keep right at the front of the press so I can grab it quickly. Xx

@pastorgg1 2 года назад

The alcohol prep pads are good for nausea too. I cannot take pills. In hospital they use prep pads on the nose and you breath that in. It really helps to stop nausea & vomiting

@synthiajackie2902 2 года назад

Thank you Jen this was very helpful. Always always love your videos ...keep up the good work God bless🤗

@mes9766 2 года назад

Love the kit, I love dt finger bandages. I did have an allergic reaction to dt triple antibiotic ointment, it was weird. Evidently in my old age i now have a sulpha allergy. I used school pencil boxes for first aid, cold, etc. I got a whole bunch when they were pennies during back to school sales. I got clear. I even put period stuff and just keep in each bathroom.

@SuperFairWinds 2 года назад

we use the calamine lotion for bug bites too!

@drusillayoung9552 2 года назад

Yes Jen this is so true. Our daughter just had her first baby and been wanting to send her one of these. It’s just me and my hubby and I still keep one of these kits stocked.

@RippingJack76 2 года назад

When covid first came out, I could not find my medicine cabinet thermometer. At one point I was a restaurant cook and I had a pocket thermometer. I took my temperatures with that. I think it goes from -20 to 250 degrees Fahrenheit.

@danieskamendez6455 2 года назад

This was such a great video! I always try to keep these on hand. I would suggest if you get migraines often to keep excedrin at hand at all times.

@kaylyn3084 2 года назад

Great idea! We definitely have all that with 2 boys. I also keep a kit for my oldest who has a stinging bug allergy. His EpiPen, steroid meds, creams, etc go in a separate container.

@angelaoren1344 2 года назад

Such a great idea. I made something like this when my kids left the house for college. I am going to make them a new one since it’s been several years. The never have medicine at their houses. Thanks for the video and have a great day

@staceyburge1408 2 года назад

This video is so very helpful. I have 4 little grandchildren, so I will be putting this together very soon. Thank you so much.

@bettywurm306 2 года назад

My daughter recently moved out and we prepared a similar pack for her. You are right, running to a pharmacy is the last thing you want to do when you are not feeling well.

@anetteo164 2 года назад

This is a great video Jen! Thank you so much appreciate it

@brendatate8986 2 года назад

I keep 3 bins at my house each bin is labeled. Stomach, cold, first aid. For instance everything to do for any stomach problems, Cold flu, first aid all the family knows to just go to the closet and all they have to grab is the bin that is labeled for whatever is wrong. It’s been very helpful to everyone. We had to grab the first aid bin last week because I cut my finger pretty bad. Coband is awesome but hard to find. Where do you suggest getting it? Thanks for sharing! Everyone really needs a first aid kit!

@bluexblondebaby 2 года назад

I’ve been struggling with keeping my medicine cabinet well organized and I have very limited storage space. This is great advice, I’m going to get 3 small bins from the dollar store. Thank you 🙏💗🙏

@marcysfillet1 2 года назад

Bandage Scissors, maybe a splint and couple of safety pins might be helpful. Good point about Coban to act as a tourniquet! Your video was excellent!

@Dualover4ever 10 месяцев назад

Excuse me, when you use triple antibiotic ointment in a wound, do you have to use it consistently during a couple of weeks? To avoid bacterial resistance?

@Chicago60644 2 года назад

@missm-m 2 года назад

My parents are both registered grad school nurses and when my brother, sister and I respectively left home they made us a hugeeee kit like this to have at our apartment and I'm now 35 and it has followed me for this whole time! Of course I replace things as they expire but still.

@cynthialongstreet2885 Месяц назад

What about using regular feminine hygiene pads in place of the compression bandage

@auntcookie9163 2 года назад

Great idea , was a little iffey about stuff from DT, but will put something together.

@vaughanteamhomes 2 года назад

When I was growing up, my dad had a few universal cures for anything from sore throat to broken arm- gargle with salt water, take aspirin, put camphophenique on it. Nothing cures a broken bone like a stinky bug bite liquid. 😂

Sorry I keep commenting haha- I think one thing to note is that generic OTC drugs are just as good as name brand! I was raised by a nurse and she always bought generic, so I do too.

It REALLYYYYY grinds my gears when people are like "oh no ibuprofen doesn't work, I NEED Advil" . 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ I had this discussion with my MIL the other day about Aleve.

@theblackknight4460 2 года назад

The reason my household runs out of band aids is because my kids use it all on things like oh, I bumped my knee I need a bandaid. Kid you not, nothing is there. I stopped buying the themed ones and they still do it. I buy things when I run out like cold medicine, etc. My husband gets mad at me says those things expire and you're wasting money. It sure was nice when he got sick and my first aid kit was fully stocked. I have a full cabinet for everything. I do need to reorganize it though. This is a great list to have on just in case.
