First-aid kits: Stock supplies that can save lives
急救箱:能救命的装备
A well-stocked first-aid kit can help you respond effectively to common injuries and emergencies. Keep at least one first-aid kit in your home and one in your car. Store your kits in easy-to-retrieve locations that are out of the reach of young children. Children old enough to understand the purpose of the kits should know where they are stored.
一个好急救箱能帮你对普通损伤和紧急情况作出有效反应。至少在你家里和车上各准备一个急救箱。把急救箱放在容易拿到的地方,但要注意不在儿童接触范围之内。足够大的,能够理解急救箱用途的儿童应该知道急救箱的位置。
