First Aid Kit Knowledge: Redi-Medic Adds Online Training Videos to Promotional Product First Aid Kits
(PRLEAP.COM) Saskatoon, SK, Canada– Having a first aid kit for any minor emergency is always good, but knowing how to use the contents is equally important. Recent international studies found that a majority of first aid kit owners are not familiar with the basic contents of those kits or how to use them. Redi-Medic, a leading manufacturer of promotional product first aid and safety kits, now includes access to online first aid and safety training videos, as a standard component in all kits.
Chris Becker, Red Cross certified first aid and CPR instructor, who demonstrates and narrates the training videos, states, “Training is a valuable addition to any first aid kit. These online videos really stress the importance of having the right contents in your first aid kit and dealing with each emergency situation appropriately.”
When surveying the various bandages, pads, compresses, and dressings in a first aid kit, confusion can be the result – not knowing the difference between an alcohol, iodine, antiseptic, sting relief, or wet wipe swab – and applying one to an open wound or infection, could result in administering pain rather than relief.
Even RediMedic’s Keychain CPR kit, one of the world’s smallest preparedness kits, includes access to its own online training video. Chris explains in the CPR video: “A heart attack can happen anywhere, anytime. Knowing what to do for a person who is not breathing for themselves as a result of a heart attack is an extremely valuable piece of information. It could mean the difference between life and death.”
Joe Hafner, founder of Redi-Medic, considers that “adding video instruction to first aid kits brings more product value to this line than any other component that can be sourced anywhere on the globe. Practical first aid knowledge is important to the entire family. Upon opening the first aid kit, go online, take twenty minutes reviewing the contents and the benefits could impact everyone you know.”
A basic knowledge of first aid is essential to gain the full value of having a first aid kit. Now all Redi-Medic kits include access to online instructional first aid videos. These videos are not a substitute for a full first aid training course, but an educational aid that will benefit all first aid kit owners.
