First Aid Kit and Training

This is an important area! Not only should you have a fully stocked First Aid Kit but all the adults in the family should be trained in CPR and First Aid. CPR can be done mouth to mouth or by using a one way ventilation kit. You never know when you might have to give CPR to a non family member. Keep updating your medical supplies as you increase your training. It could be a life or death situation.

Good point.
While the percentages of those surviving a cardiac arrest are not good, without CPR and resuscitation - they are Zero.
I hope nobody has to do CPR on someone, but it's a great feeling when you can ultimately save the person. I have experienced it a few times.
