Just trying to finish merit badges and noticed I never posted the importance of First Aid. You may be in the middle of the wilderness and not be close to medical attention. So it is important to know what to do, how to bandage up someone as well as get them to satellite. At work we take a class to help us think logical on how to apply first aid. So carry a First Aid kit with you so you have the essentials

Good thinking, Tina! First aid is important for so many reasons!
Great advice Tina. I do keep a first aid kit in my trunk I volunteer at our local arboretum and being in the middle of woods surprises can happen.

I always have bandages with me because of my kids, but we make sure to pack the extensive first aid kit with us when we go camping. It's very important to know what to do.
