Essential Items Every Home First Aid Kit Should Have

💡 Why Every Home Needs a First Aid Kit

Accidents don’t just happen at work — they often occur where we least expect them: at home. From minor cuts and burns to unexpected allergic reactions, a home first aid kit ensures you can act fast when emergencies arise.

At Bansi Safety Gear, we believe every Kenyan home should be prepared for both minor and serious injuries. That’s why we provide affordable and fully equipped first aid kits suitable for families, schools, and domestic workers.


🩹 Must-Have Items in a Home First Aid Kit

1️⃣ Adhesive Bandages (Plasters)

Perfect for small cuts, blisters, or scrapes. Always have different sizes ready for kids and adults.

2️⃣ Sterile Gauze Pads & Adhesive Tape

For covering larger wounds and keeping them clean. Gauze pads help stop bleeding and prevent infection.

3️⃣ Antiseptic Solution or Wipes

To clean wounds and reduce the risk of infection. Keep alcohol-free wipes for children’s sensitive skin.

4️⃣ Scissors & Tweezers

Scissors help cut bandages, while tweezers safely remove splinters, glass, or debris.

5️⃣ Pain Relievers

Include paracetamol or ibuprofen for headaches, fever, and mild pain.

6️⃣ Thermometer

An essential tool to check for fever — especially for families with children.

7️⃣ Antihistamine Cream or Tablets

For allergic reactions, insect bites, or skin rashes.

8️⃣ Disposable Gloves

Protects you from infection when treating someone else’s wound.

9️⃣ Instant Cold Pack

Helps reduce swelling and soothe pain from sprains or bumps.

🔟 First Aid Manual

Every kit should have a small booklet guiding you on how to handle common emergencies like burns, bleeding, or fainting.


🧰 Tips for Maintaining Your Home First Aid Kit

  • Store it in a cool, dry place — away from children’s reach.
  • Check expiry dates every 6 months and replace used or expired items.
  • Keep one kit in the house and another in your car for emergencies on the go.
