How to build a first aid kit station for home business?

[Chris1256]

I am running a business from home where the staff are in and out all day, i was thinking of setting up a first aid station, like built with all the gear easy to access, maybe out of wood or something similar, labels etc for easy access.

Maybe a grab and go kit or something separate for the cars.

has anyone built anything like this or have any ideas of what i can do to make this awesome??

also would want it made so its easy to stock up on the basics when they are used.

Hi @Chris1256,

Building something bespoke would be great, but here are a few ready made options:

• Sandleford 360 x 452 x 150mm First Aid Box

• FastAid First Aid Kit, Easy-Refill, Metal Wall Mount

• FastAid AED Cabinet, Alarmed, RDC150

Let me tag clever woodworkers @JoeAzza and @woodalwaysworks to see what they would do.

@Chris1256 , I agree with @Jason

I needed one when I cut myself while doing woodwork, I was going to make one,  but decided it was cheaper to buy one , I bought the Sandleford one that @Jason recommended, this one has a lock and signage too, it has become real handy when needed.

Mine is located in the    workshop/garage area, just make it’s located for easy access.

Hello @Chris1256 

Thanks for sharing your question about a first aid station. It's great that you've received excellent advice from @JoeAzza. If you are after a container box for first aid, then getting a Sandleford 315 x 360 x 100mm First Aid Box would be the quickest way to get a ready to go easy to install container that is lockable. I then suggest looking at the MediMate 420 Piece Ultimate First Aid Kit or the MediMate 123 Piece Tradie First Aid Kit. These are suitable for workplaces, vehicles, households, or high-risk environments, these kits cover everything from minor cuts to trauma care. They are relatively easy to maintain and refill.

But if you are after a custom-made cabinet, then it would be possible to build one out of MDF. Secure it with screws and paint it white with a large red cross on the front. Please let me know if it needs to be custom made and I will sketch up a basic cabinet plan for you. Please make sure to tell me the dimensions of the cabinet so that I can include it in the plan.

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.
