Re: Recommendations For A Campervan FAK Upgrade Please
im assuming this guy has quite extensive medical training? its not the sort of first aid kit id imagine most people would carry, especially having that smaller bag, plus 2 trauma kits in his truck (ive only watched this one video)

He was in the Navy so I imagine he had a basic level of first add training, plus some additional. Let's be honest, if someone's leaking blood everywhere I'm sure it's basic knowledge that you need to stem the flow otherwise their dead. Even with training the first time you see something really bad you go one of two ways, one you go into autopilot and just get it done, two your mind clears out.digi wrote:im assuming this guy has quite extensive medical training? its not the sort of first aid kit id imagine most people would carry, especially having that smaller bag, plus 2 trauma kits in his truck (ive only watched this one video)

Sorry to hear that mate, I hope things are going as well as they can for you.BlinkingCory wrote:Thanks for responses.
Sorry for not replying, we suffered a sudden family loss and I pretty much gave up interest in, well, pretty much everything for a while.
Hope you all well.
Keeping on keeping on and all that.

Do a first aid course the basic St.John Ambulance course is £30 and last for a morning, covers CPR, Chocking, Bandaging. Anything else leave to the professionals.

That's all well and good if your near civilisation old advice on broken limbs re splinting comes in handy then
