Must-Haves for Your Family’s Medical Kit

Having a family means having a game plan when it comes to your family’s medical needs. It can get even more complicated when someone in the house gets sick or multiple people fall ill. That’s why you need to be prepared in advance. 

List of Medications and Vitamins

For each family member, you need a list of any medications they have been prescribed plus anything over the counter they take on a regular basis.

One of the first questions you are asked by medical staff at doctor’s offices and hospitals is current medications. Having this list helps speed up your family member being cared for. 

First Aid Kit and Basic Over the Counter Medicine Supply

Every family needs a first aid kit. I actually recommend one for each floor of your house and each car, so if you need a first aid kit in an emergency one is always handy. You can buy a store-bought first aid kit, or you can make your own.

Basic Things to Include in your First Aid Kit:

• Adhesive Bandages of varying sizes. 
• Gauze Pads of varying sizes
• Rolled Gauze
• Gloves
• Antiseptic wipes or spray
• Tweezers
• Scissors
• Medical Tape (like paper tape)
• Thermometer
• Rash Cream like hydrocortisone
• Tylenol or Ibuprofen
• Antibiotic Cream
• Antihistamine 

You should also have some basic over the counter medicine for a variety of illnesses that don’t warrant a trip to the doctor.

Basic Over the Counter Medications: 

• Aloe Vera Gel
• Antacids
• Antihistamine
• Hydrocortisone Cream or Spray
• Cough and Cold medications
• Anti- Diarrhea medication

Illness Journal

Keeping track of multiple people’s symptoms, temperatures, and other medical information can be difficult. And if you wind up at the doctor, they want detailed information about temperatures and times those occurred, and symptoms and when they began.

Trying to remember all of that is a pain, but if you keep an illness journal you can document each person’s symptoms, temperatures, and other vital information so you have nothing to remember. It’s all written down. 

Ideally, your family will all stay well and never need anything in a medicine kit or first aid kit. But in reality, eventually, your family is going to get sick or hurt and need them.

Being prepared for when illness or accidents occur will help you to take care of your family with much less stress.
