Yes

I was in during the switch from granular quikclot now that shit would ruin your life while saving it.

I hate granular

Gotta surgically remove every grain like getting shwacked wasnt insult enough.

I find them in militia ifaks often so check em

Gotta make sure there’s actual medical gear in them first

Lmao too true

The old dip, lickies ans chewies

I worked with a corpman whos marines went into his medbag and found pringles and caprisun. True story

Lmao

The essentials

Calories to replace the blood

I cant praise saran wrap enough either. Theres no rules to this shit and keeping debris out is a must

For real infections will kill you

Yea and it stretches and self sticks so you can do loose wrap and call it good for evac

Take the full roll and cut it in half with a knife put one half in your med kit and the other in the ifak if you have room

That’s smart. I’m going to do it

Its also really important that your teams medic or the RN/EMT knows stuff about you. A patch with blood type and allergies or just sharpie it on the ifak. It also helps to have a copy of health insurance paperwork in your admin pouch

Obviously I have my EMT-B but I’m currently working on my BSN

Actually let me correct myself, put it in a bag and shove it in a pants pocket. The cops will remove your vest and pack before admission to the hospital if it ever even makes it there. And thats great bro.

Im more preaching to the others who arent as medically educated as you are.

People don’t focus enough of medical

Maybe I should get medical insurance

write the info on your arms with sharpie

^^ hitler reference?

nah. just have had glucose/panic and had to write what I took for it on my arms so people would be able to treat it

my niece has to do this for allergies

always keep a sharpie for any number of reasons

@Fartfignewton what good is medical insurance during the boog

Anyone think about pain control? That's how the government would try to get you back in the system with addictive stuff.

For me knowing how to do rehab stuff in advance, stretching, injury rehab exercises etc, is key.
