I am looking for an emergency first aid kit for my house for 2-4 people. I want it for extreme situations when it may not be possible for 911 assistance (i know they are always the first to resort too btw) is this a good one? http://www.amazon.com/Target-%252fAmeric an-Emergency-Preparedness-Starter/dp/B00 0A3QLBY/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=hp c&qid=1199316383&sr=8-1

Im trying to find a First aid kid for a jr fireman. I am a boy scout with first aid and emergency preparedness merit badge so i know what to do with just about everything first aid wise, im just looking for a good all around kit for just about anything. It will probably be used most for things like car accidents, but it has to be good for just about anything. If it would be a kit that i would have to add some stuff to that would be fine too. Any suggestions would be nice. (try and keep under $150)
i have been looking at this one http://www.galls.com/style.html?assort=g eneral_catalog&style=TK079 any suggestions are appreciated, thanks
I understand to leave it to the professionals but if im the first person there i will be helping the person especially because i know what to do. And a car accident is just the first thing that came to mind, im just looking for suggestions for an all around first aid kit for just about anything. Im looking for suggestions, not advice on what to do because i know that When paramedics arrive to get out of the way and let them do their job, but being a Jr fireman i usually am the first person there. I know to get out of the way

Please leave the car accidents to the Profession firefighters and Paramedics. Nothing we hate more than some citizen trying to help and just getting in our way. Plus your likely to get injured also. Nothing is more dangerous than being out on a car accident in the middle of a street or highway.

Sorry didn't mean to come off as an ass. You must be from a small town with a volunteer fire dept. I'm not sure what you mean by Jr. fireman is it the same as a cadet or POC? Do you belong to the local fire dept. If so you could probably get everything you want from their ambulance and just buy an empty bag to put it all in instead of buying overpriced medical supplies from galls. You could also try thefirestore.com they usually have better prices than galls.
