EMSOTM 29 - Wilderness First Aid Kit planning for the lay responder

In this episode of EMS on the Mountain, Sean and Mike discuss first aid kit planning for the lay responder. They provide advice on how to build or evaluate a first aid kit for day hiker backpackers, as well as how to apply the same knowledge outside of the wilderness to a home or car first aid kit. The considerations discussed include volume (how many people is it for?), activity (what are you doing?), and training level (what is your skill/training level?). Topics covered also include bleeding control, minor injuries, general illnesses such as diarrhea and coughs.
