The Community First Responder Trauma Kit is a publicly accessible emergency kit designed to help manage life-threatening bleeding and trauma until emergency services arrive. It provides clearly organised equipment for use in community and public settings.
Serious injuries can occur anywhere — workplaces, schools, sporting venues, community centres, and public spaces. In these environments, immediate access to appropriate trauma equipment can make a critical difference while waiting for emergency responders.
The Community First Responder Trauma Kit is designed to support rapid intervention for severe bleeding and traumatic injuries. Its contents are organised for clarity and accessibility, making it suitable for trained staff, volunteers, or first responders operating in community settings.
Compact, lightweight, and MOLLE-compatible, the CFR Kit includes a high-visibility red Cordura Operator IFAK Pouch with a custom TRAUMA KIT patch for rapid identification. It contains everything you need—from haemorrhage control and chest seals to burn dressings and snake bite bandages—so you're never caught unprepared in the field.
