Notes:
- This list is the minimum required for a first aid post. When determining additional
items or quantities, take into account the size of the venue, the type of venue, and the
level of training of the Brigade unit(s) covering the duty. Brigade members may not use
supplies or attempt procedures that have not been included in the training standard to
which they have been qualified.
- Brigade members are encouraged to obtain and use St. John Ambulance supplies. Items
marked * are available through the St. John supply system and have been rigorously
reviewed and presented as the most cost effective items available. They may be obtained as
elements of the Modular Packs as follows:
No. 1 Stock #8580-1
(Small Wounds)
|
No. 2 Stock #8580-2
(Medium Wounds)
|
No. 3 Stock #8580-3
(Large Wounds/ Burns)
|
- 6 plastic adhesive dressings 7.5 cm x 2 cm
- 2 plastic adhesive dressings 7.5 cm. x 2.5 cm
- 2 elastic adhesive dressings 10 cm x 6 cm
- 4 non-stick adhesive dressings 7.5 cm x 5 cm
- 6 cleansing wipes
|
- 1 pressure dressing with elasticized ties 17 x 17 cm
- 2 gauze dressings 10 cm x 17 cm
- 2 cleansing wipes
|
- 1 non-stick absorbent dressing
- 2 elasticized bandages with fastening clips
|
- If supplies other than St. John supplies are used, the quality must be confirmed by a
Medical Officer as being at least equal to that contained in the St. John packs.
- The preferred container for Brigade members to carry supplies is the fanny pack,
available from Councils, either empty (stock #8576) or partially filled (stock #8575).
- A face mask and valve is a recommended optional item for the kit. If a mask and valve
are carried, St. John stock No. 8580-7 is the preferred item.
