List of ‘Collapse’ Medical Supplies.
Here’s my list of Collapse medical supplies with natural remedies included (we should have these as back-ups or for first use supplies to save commercially made items!). Dr.Bones and I spend a lot of time and energy researching “back-up” plans for traditional medicine. We want YOU to have the knowledge to provide medical help if we have a collapse. I have planted over 60 different medicinal herbs in my raised beds and am learning how incredible natural remedies can be.
Collapse medical supplies:
- oral antibiotics- may also include garlic oil, honey,cayenne,thyme oil,peppermint oil and eucalyptus oil as herbal alternatives or fresh garlic or ginger
- antibiotic ointment and/or antibacterial herbal salve ( with calendula/tea tree oil/lavender oils)
- multi size bandages- lots of these in several sizes, spot, knuckle, size 1×3 is great to cover most lacerations
- ace bandages- 3 or 4
- steri strips and butterfly bandages to close minor lacerations
- TONS of gauze/dressings (sterile and non-sterile 4x4s)
- include lots of “telfa” pads( non-adherent-so healing wounds won’t stick to the dressing) and a xeroform petroleum dressing (non stick)
- ABD pads (usually 5×9) also called combine dressings
10×30 trauma dressing - tapes- include duct, adhesive and paper ( for adhesive tape allergies)
- quality bandage scissor/trauma shear ( ALL METAL, the plastic handle ones break cutting jean material!)
- Pliable fracture material
- mole skin- for blisters
- scalpels
- LOTS of nitrile gloves
