Be prepared

First aid done right

Every household should have a basic first-aid kit. But when you have diabetes, the supplies you need go beyond bandaids and aspirin. Use this checklist to expand your home’s first-aid kit so you are ready for anything.

Place these items in a lightweight, waterproof storage container with a snap-on lid. Keep the container with your other first-aid supplies in a dry, easy-to-access spot.

Travelling? Bring it with you in the car or pack the supplies in a small pouch in your hand luggage.
