As the weather warms up you’ll find yourself and your family member outdoors more often. It sure feels good getting lots of fresh air after being inside most of the winter, doesn’t it? While enjoying yourself in the great outdoors on a summer trip or just getting sun on the patio or while gardening or mowing the lawn…you never know when you’ll cut your finger with a tool, get a sunburn, trip and fall or have an accident of some sort. As much as we hope those things never happen, let’s face it, they happen at least once or twice every summer when people are out and about the most.

Doctor supplies sure come in handy at times like these and you want to have the necessary healthcare supplies on hand before you need them, of course.

Think of the many activities that take you outdoors more in the summer time: You take the family fishing, go on a hiking trip or plan an all day biking adventure. Later in the summer, the family goes on a camping trip. You may go boating or sailing.

As you spend more time out in the sun, you’re bound to run into flying and often stinging insects at some point. If you have children, boys seem to be especially curious about bugs and spiders. Eventually, someone is bound to get bit. Kids stumble and fall while playing ball or running to reach home plate. When your favorite fisherman gets snagged with a fishing hook while trying to bring in a big one, are you ready with the needed physician supplies to help your loved one?

Being prepared ahead of time and having medical supplies on hand and kept in a watertight container can really save the day! And with a little thought and planning, it’s easy to gather the healthcare supplies your family needs.

If you have children, you will want to have commonly needed pediatric supplies in your first aid kit. The great thing about putting together your

own kit is that it will have the physician supplies that your family most needs…it will be customized to the activities that you engage in. So if you find that your child spends most of their time on their bike, skateboard, or scooter, you can be prepared for those scrapes and abrasions that come from spills on the pavement.

Here’s a list of just a few of the medical supplies to create your first aid kit. You will want to add the specific things you know you’ll need for your family’s Summer needs…such as a bee sting kit if you have a family member who is allergic to bees.  Be sure to take a look at healthcare supplies you purchased in previous years and replace any that have passed their expiration date.
