There will be a new first aid kit put in the pound on Saturday morning.

This is a NEW KIT in a sealed plastic tub.

Please observe the following rules:

If there is a need to use any of the items including the painkillers, please consider replacing them at your convenience.

There is a small box of Asprin which should be saved for anybody suffering from chest pain particularly if symptoms suggest a cardiac crisis.
IF THIS HAPPENS, 4 to 6 Asprin should be ingested immediately as a front runner in the management of this crisis. Obviously don’t take if allergic to Asprin.

Please also make sure the tub is properly closed so that the kit can be sealed from vermin infestation.

The existing first aid kit on the door is now in breach of infection control as it is not sealed and will be replaced in the not too distant future. Therefore refrain from using it unless absolutely necessary and use the new kit in the sealed tub.
