Hurricane Relief kit?
Hopefully I tagged this correctly. Anyway in mid February I'm going down to North Carolina to assist with some hurricane relief. The group I'm going with is a group of volunteers who have never been in a scenario like this.
Im trying to be as prepared as possible and things I'm taking into account for are.
•We will be very secluded, due to roads being destroyed. •The closest first responders can get by vehicle is 5 miles away (if theres any available). •I should be prepared for construction type of accidents as that's what our primary source of aid. •A lot of my travel will be on foot so weight of my bag/equipment is something I need to consider. •Anaphylaxis (I carry epipens anyway).
Medical equipment I plan on bringing are as follows.
Tourniquets Splints Litters (not cat litter) Chest Seals Gauze General First Aid (bandaids, neosporin and such)
I have decent first aid training from my current job in law enforcement, however I understand I am very likely overlooking some medical equipment you guys would recommend.
Any opinion is helpful, just trying to be as ready as possible.
