Eye kit, Ear kit, Burn kit etc. Dollar Tree 2x5x8 pencil boxes make great kits. Keep everything together and organized

As a retired nurse, please guys don’t just buy these items READ, take a CPR class even if you’ve been certified in the past! Practice learning all of these skills BP cuff= you will need several sizes, small=children medium and large. Learn the average norm for ages groups and sometimes even weight but a thin person can have a high number and a large or over weight person can have a BP in range. Check your city/county for classes EMT, CPR, first aide! Geez I hope U T doesn’t mess with this post. They have before 😡. Be safe and keep learning!!!

That’s great we need awesome nurses! I would recommend starting as a certified nurses aide also called a patient care technician. Generally only up to six weeks training and sometimes less. That would be a great place for you to start. You would know if you like a job or not

@@jackieharding9781 Thanks a lot for the advice. I am not from the US but I watch a lot of American videos to train for a lot of stuff, especially disasters. If I can save one life with God's help then I am more than glad to do my part. God bless you.

Penlight, O2 Sat, Otoscope, scale, thermometer, nail care kit, good tweezers, IV supplies

A key benefit you didn't mention with respect to Jase regard to Rx meds is that it allows one to obtain a 360-day supply. For someone on maintenance meds for chronic chronic conditions, insurance usually allows no more than a 90-day supply.

I’d add an oximeter. A manual resuscitation bag. Choking apparatus such as lifevac. Tourniquet.

Pulse/Oxygen fingertip is a great item to have.

Ive been saving the inner core rolls of heavy duty aluminum foil. They are strong, rigid. Come in handy for something lol.

Keep a bottle of organic Cayenne in your kit also.

You mentioned supplements. Could you do a show on what you take and why.

Great info! I would add a little black book with friends that have medical backgrounds ( doctors, nurses, EMTs and dentists) perhaps even write it on the front cover of one of the books just mentioned.

I would recommend saline eye wash and eye patches. Tweezers for removing splinters and/or other debris. Also, liquid benedryl for anaphylaxis due to stings and/or severe allergic reaction. Or epi pen, if you’re allergic to bees, etc. possibly a surgical kit and stuff to clean wounds, like alcohol, iodine or hydrogen peroxide.

I was a EMT for 30 years.

Any tips you can share to a youngster that plans to work in healthcare ?

Chest seal, blood checking machine for checking blood sugar, Sam's splint, BVM or face shield for breathing into someone

Evening Goshen family. I activated my new Lifestraw water bottle today. I'll use it daily from tomorrow. I've got the pocket Lifestraw too. I keep 100 litres indoors in totes, which I can use for drinking, cooking, and hotwater bottles and washing.

Add SWAT T tourniquets for small and pediatric patients. They also are great pressure dressing over gauze pads. Manual blood pressure cuffs are great tourniquets used every day in operating rooms.

Overlooked item, nail clippers. Keep your hands & feet clean and operational.

I also recommend small plastic bags to put ice in; could also use a glove. Pen and paper to write times of interventions to relay to EMS or ER.

BRING BACK VICTORY GARDENS!!

I would add an autoclaved stapler, I got mine from Amazon.

Open your IBD and put it in a regular zip lock bag. Under stress, wet/bloody fingers... You ain't opening up the 2 bags they are shrink wrapped up in.

In our dental kit we have kits to repair cavities or lost fillings, orajel & Clove oil for pain, floss harps, tooth picks, peroxide & salt rinse, hard copy books. Recommend EMT shears with the tourniquet most have a sleeve attached for them.

Dental repair kits are great.

Oragel, cold sore medicine, calmine lotion, athlete's foot treatment, desitin and the list could go on forever

What options should be used to sterilize the dental tools or medical tools? Boiling water, alcohol, hard liquor?

Steristrips. To close wounds, after iodene

Wound clot for those that have low platelets or use blood thinners and don't clot easily

Powdered Yarrow also works well externally to stop bleeding, as well as a tincture used internally for the same purpose.

Ace bandages for splinting ........

Hello. You mentioned you take supplements, can you share/ suggest some that would be worthwhile taking/ investing in? Thank you 😊

A wealth of knowledge! Thank you!!

What about pre antibiotics drugs like sulpha sulfa drugs that were used to treat bacterial infections? I think the military had these drugs in their first aid kits.

We have an arm sling, bandaids in many sizes, OTC pain meds (aspirin, advil, etc. - also great for a barter item); and some masks. I also have OTC cranberry pills b/c I sometimes get a UTC and cranberry flushes it out. I have burn cream, neosporin, backtine, and rubbing alcohol. I also recommend medical tape.

Good Reminders!

We got to thinking about the pink eye. What can you use otc that would work for this??? We bought a ton of Saline eye wash for emergency and flushing the eyes. 😊 homeopathic eye drops, etc. 😊

We got a new autoclave at work. The last one was like 25 years old. I’m in charge of it. I’m autoclaving everything!! Trying to figure out how to purchase the old one.

On top of all the large "Totes" I have filled up with 2x2, 3x3 and 4x4 gauze pads through the years, I have also collected a pretty good size collection of 5x9 gauze pads. If I were to start today, I would buy 4x4 and 5x9 only, but I have been doing this for many years. The old gauze pads I have packed away will still be sterile unless opened or get wet. Be prepared and be safe my friends.

Thank you so much! I did get the dental kit!❤

As to tourniquets make sure you buy real CAT-7 and or SOF-T. I like both but the SOF-T folds flatter and slips in a pocket easier but works just as well as the CAT.

Lol, that is so true about finding stuff anywhere. I got 2 medium size boxes of random guaze for like $20 of marketplace😊

Great video

I would t buy these cheap tourniquet I would buy CAT tourniquet, or swat T if for use on kids or other people, or buy better brands, the cheap ones could break and then can’t tighten it, not something you need to deal with when in situations where one is needed.

Here in Oregon we have a “Good Samaritan” law that protects you if you help the best you can. Still, be careful wherever you are! Use good sense. Be safe out there.🙏🏽💟

Great video, thanks for sharing, one book i would add is a medical dictionary for people like me who don't read medical so well, And i would like to add, you stress that these items are for use after teotwawki, which is true, but it is not only for individual use, but if you goto a Dr who is out of supplies, then they can't help you, so though i may not be qualified to do sutures, i want gloves, iodine, suture kits etc. to give to the people who are qualified, but the supply line is cut.

"House of God" might jar some memories - although entertaining - when a health care professional learned something. ;)

I used my FSA to purchase my jase case...

Herbalremedies!!

Question in regard of stockpiling prescription medications (heart, diabetes, BP, diuretic, Etc.) - (most of which are stupid expensive) what is the average shelf life before these are no longer effective? Do they ever become "poison" to take, or do they just lose strength? I've searched and found various pieces of information. Your thoughts? Thanks,

Progesterone cream(specifically for) short term can stop or slow a womens period, not good for long term use. Natures way pms also slows but by nutritional balancing of the hormones a miracle for any women with troubles.

Crutches, coban, suture kit, antifungals, finger splint, essential oils and herbs for respiratory issues, colloidal silver, bleed stop, arm sling, blood oxygen finger clip thing….I also kept my long knee brace just in case I ever injure my knee again. Insurance paid for it so it may come in handy for me or someone else if everything goes 👎🏻. Thank you for all you do. I really enjoy your channel and God bless you and your family. 🙏🏻

Waiting for the two first aid kits ordered from doomandbloom. Received my Jase kit recently along with two of my prescriptions. A little expensive since it’s out of pocket for the prescriptions and service fee.

I really appreciate you and your advice ! My whole family is in the medical field. I have made some of them listen to you, and some are preppers and they appreciate your input !

What are your feelings on the vac device to remove an obstruction in the airway? Are they effective? Do they do additional damage? My grandson, 11 months old at the time, choked and turned blue. I’m still amazed at how quickly he turned blue. I remembered my first aid training and was able to dislodge the obstruction, but I wondered what I would do if I couldn’t. This was even more traumatic for me due to a little one I know losing her life a few months earlier when she choked on a little, rubber ball.

I can relate to your situation. I have an 11 month old grandson. I actually own the life vac and it seems like a very good device to me. I think every restaurant should have it and also every home. I’m not a doctor, but I am a physical therapist. I actually made the comment about this device before I saw your comment.

Suture kit

Oragel, cold sore,

How are you supposed to stock pile prescription medicine when they only last for 1 years?

Add tampons for GSW or puncture wounds.

1lb propane tanks. Price per gallon in the 1lb containers is outrageous. Do 20lb propane tanks or bigger, and a converter hose to mimic the 1 lb tank. Refilling can work, but having cases of 6 of the 1lb tanks doesn't help. The rubber in their seals at the top dry out and then leak upon first use and after. Have external propane brass caps and seals too. OMG, it's a whole ecosystem to support 1lb propane tanks, just forget it.

X shears are the superior medicial shear. They can cut through anything with ease without damaging the cutting surfaces. You can even use them for odd projects like cutting thick filters and rope. Amazing versatility and quality.
