Choosing a workplace first aid kit
Practical product checks from Birchward Medical.
Compare the complete contents
Read the contents list alongside the pack quantities. A kit and a refill may use a similar photograph, so check whether the case or cabinet is included.
Match the storage to your setting
Compare the case dimensions, wall-mounting options and portability. Look at how individual supplies are arranged and how you will check stock.
Check refills and replacement supplies
Keep the product name or SKU for the kit, and compare each refill against its contents list. Check expiry information where supplied and replace items according to their manufacturer instructions.
Use your workplace assessment
Select supplies around your organisation’s first aid needs assessment. A product description or a stated kit size does not replace that assessment.
