saltmonster 0 Posted October 1, 2024 Share Posted October 1, 2024 Hi All! The last thing on my cat 3 checklist is the first aid kit. I brought the burnsco first aid kit that says it complies to cat 3 standards. But when I looked at the YNZ safety regulations later, i noticed the cat 3 burnsco first aid kit is missing half the stuff that's needed in the safety regulations. I'm just wondering how strict the the regulations are or do i need to go buy everything that's missing? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mischief 5 Posted October 1, 2024 Share Posted October 1, 2024 If you have the first aid stuff like the bandages etc already, Oceania will sell you just the drug component. I had the same situation as you - already had the first aid kit from burnsco for cat4/5 but needed to add the drugs for CAT3 Alternatively, if you have a tame GP some will write you a prescription for what you need. a lot more hassle though (and not really much cheaper) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They just check you have a kit, not what's inside. So up to you how thorough you want to be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They're really careful with giving that stuff out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
