Scrapes, scratches and sprains are part of life when Airstreamers go adventuring. The MyFAK First Aid Kit from MyMedic lets you patch up life’s little nuisances and keep on exploring.
This isn’t your mother’s first aid kit. Instead of millions of Band-Aids and two little vials of iodine or Mercurochrome, you get a selection of patch-me-up gear that rivals the aisles of a well-stocked drug store. Really? Yes, really. It’s that well thought out. And you have a choice of two strengths – Basic or Advanced.
The Basic MyFAK comes complete with standard tools, like body-specific gauze and bandages, liquid skin, burn gel, a finger splint, tweezers, alcohol wipes, hydrocortisone cream, and the dynamic duo of pain relief – Tylenol and Advil. Then, there are the extras that just make sense: Vaseline; sunscreen; Chapstick; an assortment of antiseptic wipes; oral pain relief gel; and hand sanitizing wipes.
Level up to the Advanced MyFAK bag for an assortment of high-end items that would impress a medical doctor – stuff like ammonia inhalant ampules; Medi-Lyte® electrolyte replacement; Endurolytes fizz tablets; nitrile gloves; a needle puller; surgical scissors; sutures; and two scalpels. The Advanced MyFAK also includes gear you hope you will never need, including a survival rescue blanket, 20 feet of Paracord rope, a light stick and a rescue whistle.
Don’t worry, well-prepared doesn’t mean loaded down. The MyFAK contents come neatly organized in one bag that measures just 4 in. x 6.75 in. x 7.75 in. The Basic kit weighs 2.46 lbs. and the Advanced kit tips in at 3.21 lbs. Both bags come with D-Rings to attach to your gear’s shoulder strap. The MyFAK is approved by both OSHA & ANSI and also qualifies for purchase under FSAs and HSAs. Why not stash one at home and carry one in your Airstream for all of life’s “What Ifs?”
MyMedic is devoted to helping make a difference in the uncertainties of everyday life. And they have. People have used their MyFAK kits (especially the Rapid Application Tourniquet System) to successfully save lives. The company is located in North Salt Lake, Utah.
