First Aid Kit Refill and Updates: A New Way Forward

First Aid Kit Refills, Restocking and Updates: A New Way Forward

Keeping your first aid kit up-to-date is crucial for ensuring workplace safety and compliance with Australian regulations. In 2024, first aid refill services have evolved to meet the changing needs of businesses and organisations. Modern refill options are not only more cost-effective, but also come with a guaranteed three-year shelf life, offering both convenience and peace of mind.

Don’t Discard Out-of-Date Supplies – Donate or Repurpose

If you have older first aid supplies, don’t throw them away. Consider donating them to local causes such as the Koala Hospital in Lismore or Byron Bay, or to your local animal rescue organisations. Alternatively, these out-of-date items can be repurposed for training purposes, helping others learn essential first aid skills while promoting sustainability.

Choosing the Right Refill for Your Workplace

Choosing the correct first aid kit refill for your workplace depends on factors such as workplace size and risk level. At International Paramedic College, we recommend the following refills:

A Must-Have for Schools: EDP Powder

For schools and child-friendly environments, we highly recommend Provodine Iodine in powder form. This product has been a long-standing staple for treating minor cuts and skinned knees, especially in semi-tropical environments. It’s gentle, effective, and dries out wounds without the sting of traditional antiseptics.
