MOBIL-MEDIC "VOLUNTEER" TRAUMA KIT

Review by: Mike Fissel - As seen in JPFreek Adventure Magazine, October 2010

Here Is What WE Say About It: Equipment Image

For years I have stressed the importance of being prepared for emergencies on the trail. Not too long ago, we were all again reminded of the importance of this with the tragic accident in the Mohave Desert at the Desert Truck Race. The news reported it took over 30 minutes for help to arrive. Again I ask, “Will You Be Prepared”?

First Aid kits are probably present in every Jeep that travels off-road or should be. They are quite handy for small cuts, scrapes, headaches etc. Unfortunately, they are totally useless in the event of typical severe injuries you might encounter in a medical emergency off-road. For these you need medical training (a simple 2 day weekend course in Wilderness 1st Aid) and very good trauma kit.

Mobil Medic sells such a kit, actually several of them depending on your needs. From small kits for the individual with enough supplies to treat one or two emergencies to larger kits for professional paramedics and rescue trucks. There are lots of companies out there selling Trauma Kits, why Mobil Medic? Simple, quality, price and service. Quite frankly, you won’t find a well stocked, similarly priced kit anywhere.

The Volunteer Kit that features over 200 items including Cervical Collar, Berman Airways, CPR Face Shield, Adult BVM Rescue Breather, several large and x-large trauma pads, flexible splint, hemostat, trauma shears, gauge pads, nitrile gloves, instant ice packs, blood pressure cuff, stethoscope, blood stopper trauma pack, forceps, surgical masks and more. It is stocked to easily handle one or more major medical emergencies. The perfect kit to carry in your vehicle.

Just how good is this Trauma Kit? It was good enought to impress our Wilderness 1st Aid Instructor, not only because of the price, but the variety and amount of items it contained. So good in fact that Jeep Expedition Members bought over 50 of these in two separate Club Group Buys.

Mobile Medic offers a variety of kits for the individual with basic training up to the professional paramedic and ambulance corps/rescue squad. They give a big bang for the buck and because of their competitive pricing, you can buy a bigger kit for less than the competitors smaller kits. They donate part of their proceeds to the Wounded Warrior Project and the Semper Fi Fund for wounded Marines and in my search for quality Trauma Kits at affordable prices, I found no other company doing the same.

Update on Mobil-Medic. Recentltly, after several years of serving First Responders, Mobil-Medic closed their doors. Unfortunately their products are no longer available.

Looks like we will be looking for a new source for Trauma Kits for our Members.

We'll wait until then, post some reviews and remove the Mobil-Medic products from our website.
