Folks,

What are the required components to the first aid kits in your labs?  =3BI see the ANSI Z308 1-2003 Standard includes burn treatment and antiseptic.  =3BI remember being told in a first aid class a few years ago that we should never apply any other treatment than band-aids or gauze.  =3BBurn  =3Band antiseptic ointments should be left to emergency personnel only.  =3BAs such, our first aid kits contain gloves, gauze pads, and band-aids only.

What do you teach or recommend?
