How To Choose? – Less Than 8 Hours From Critical Care

If you are planning to be less than 8 hours from critical emergency medical care, we believe that you should have a kit that covers basic first aid needs and has a fair variety of supplies. It is also our suggestion that you carry some prescription medications on your trip.

Here are the choices we recommend:

a.  If you have 1-4 in your party and

– your trip is  1-14 days we recommend the WMS DASH kit.

– your trip is 14-28 days we recommend the WMS DASH or WMS TSAVO kit.

– your trip is over 30 days we recommend the WMS TSAVO or WMS PAMIR kit.

b. If you have 5-8 in your party and

– your trip is  1-14 days we recommend the WMS DASH or WMS TSAVO kit.

– your trip is 14-28 days we recommend the WMS TSAVO or WMS PAMIR kit.

– your trip is over 30 days we recommend the WMS PAMIR or WMS ALTAI kit.

c. If you have 9-12 in your party and

– your trip is  1-14 days we recommend the WMS TSAVO or WMS PAMIR kit.

– your trip is more than 14 days we recommend the WMS PAMIR or ALTAI kit.

d. If you have more than 13 in your party, we recommend the WMS ALTAI kit.

Finally, taking into account the fourth important question, you must make your final decision based upon how your kit will be transported. This is the topic of our final post on the “How To Choose” topic, next.

Testimonials

I have been a user of Wilderness Medical kits for several years. My Wilderness Medical kit has traveled the world with me from kayaking the high Arctic, crossing the Patagonian Ice Cap, and trekking through the Himalayas. After a lot of research including consulting with physicians, I came to the conclusion that the Wilderness Medical kits were far and away the most comprehensive and practical medical kits commercially available.
