When it comes to first aid the Horse & Rider First Aid Kit from Robinson Animal Healthcare provides a great base from which to build your emergency supplies.
Most minor cuts and grazes can be treated effectively with the contents of your first aid kit but serious injuries should be immediately attended by a veterinary surgeon.
Infection is a major factor in delaying a wound from healing and correct first aid can significantly assist in the healing process but to do this you need the right products to hand.
Packaged in a convenient, wipe clean bag with carry straps, the Horse & Rider First Aid Kit functions as a ruck sack to keep both hands free and is easy to use both on the yard and while travelling away from home competing.
The kit contains all the necessary products to deal with minor cuts and grazes, including market leading products Animalintex®, which is the only VMD licensed, multi-layered absorbent poultice available in the UK and the original Veterinary Gamgee®.
Also included are Equiwrap® cohesive bandages, Vetalintex® sterile hydrogel, Skintact® wound dressing, Fast Aid® cleansing wipes and tough cut scissors.
For the rider, the kit contains a Fast Aid® Travel First Aid Kit, the perfect solution for minor first aid treatment during outdoor activities.
The Horse & Rider First Aid Kit retails at around £24.95.
