medical equipment at home
Lidl will have some medical stuff soon and I will be buying some of it. Just wondered if others keep stuff like that at home
Not worried about powering the whole house,just eating hot food,getting a brew,seeing through the dark,and staying warm.

In terms of medical kit I've got a huge first aid box filled with everything from Antiseptic to Z-fold gauze

Re: medical equipment at home
A fair bit of First Aid stuff and some field dressings for heavy stuff although that's my limit. I do have friends and neighbours that are nurses which is handy, one living next door. That would be my first port of call if we had an emergency that I couldn't deal with. Probably be good for a second opinion anyway.
Re: medical equipment at home
I'm wondering that too - I can't see anything at the lidl website about it.
As for what I keep already - lots of otc stuff, lots of bandages of various sorts, lots of dressings. No haemostatic stuff yet - I've seen so many discussions about which type/influences etc, and I need some proper research before I spend any dosh.
I have 2 x 24 litre plastic crates of stuff, which seems a lot to me but probably isn't with all the gearheads on here
Re: medical equipment at home
I am the same as all of you.OTC remedies,plasters and bandages.Anything beyond that is for doctors.

Re: medical equipment at home
I'm prepared in the future to buy some stuff that only a doctor would know how to use, in case things got appreciably worse than they are now. I could do injections myself already, too - when my beloved grey cat got diabetes, the vet trained me how to inject properly. I did it daily for 9 months.

We did the same for our cat for a few years & the sadistic little sod used to LOVE his jabs!

Re: medical equipment at home
Good grief! Nope, that didn't happen for me though she did come running when I tapped the head of her grooming brush on the floor
