Items such as adhesive bandages, gauze, medical tape, instant cold packs, gloves, antiseptic wipes, thermometers, pulse oximeters, masks, wound dressings, and first aid kit refills should be easy to access when needed.

Why Summer Supplies Should Be Reviewed Before the Season Gets Busy
Summer can increase the demand for first aid and medical supplies. Camps, schools, community programs, workplaces, and clinics often see more outdoor activity, more movement, and more minor injuries during warmer months.
A supply review helps make sure important items are available before they are needed. First aid kits should be checked, expired items should be replaced, and high-use products like gloves, bandages, gauze, wipes, tape, cold packs, and wound dressings should be restocked.
Summer supply checks are especially helpful before camp sessions, sports programs, outdoor workplace projects, community events, school summer programs, long weekends, staff vacations, and high-volume clinic weeks.
