A Checklist Of Necessary Supplies For Your Airbnb Rental

Not all Airbnb rentals provide a first aid kit for emergencies. Even if they do, there’s a possibility that the items inside may be damaged or even expired. To ensure you don’t get yourself in trouble in times of crisis, bringing your own set of necessary supplies to your Airbnb rental can save you extra trips to the hospital, time, and even life. Here, we have compiled a checklist of everything you need in a first aid kit for your Airbnb rental.

Importance of Carrying Necessary Supplies

When you’re packing for a trip, there are a few items you’ll never want to leave behind. Beyond the obvious – passport, wallet, and phone, a well-stocked and compact kit is always essential. However, with a whole list of possible combinations one could stock up in their first aid kit, it becomes hard to identify exactly what qualifies as an essential. First aid kits are important when you need a temporary fix to reduce the severity of an injury or prevent infection while waiting for professional help to arrive. In other words, having one at hand could also determine life or death in a dire situation. A first aid kit becomes even more crucial when you travel to a place you’ve never visited as you can’t be sure what medical supplies are easily accessible in stores.

Necessary Supplies to Have in Your First Aid Kit

Of course, it’s possible to buy a premade first aid kit with all the essentials in miniature size. However, for those interested in building a customized set, we’ve compiled a list of supplies you’ll want to fill it with below:

• Hand sanitizer
• Roller and adhesive bandages
• Medical tape
• Alcohol wipes
• Gauze pads and gauze roller bandages
• Antiseptic wipes or solution
• Hydrocortisone cream for bug bites or rashes
• Bug spray
• Antihistamines for allergic reactions (extra for kids if any)
• Fever and pain reducers like Advil or Tylenol
• Antibiotics
• Thermometer
• Scissors
• First aid kit manual

Making a list of everything you want to have in your first aid kit is also useful for any future travels, so you can simply restock on any finished or expired products.

Using Your Travel First Aid Kit Safely

To ensure you use your first aid kit safely, make sure to follow these general rules:

• Make a list of all your supplies in the kit
• Prepare a doctor’s note – If you use medications with needles or prescription opioids, carrying around an official note to explain why you carry can be useful if your luggage gets checked by authorities
• Toss out old medication that has expired
• Pay attention to dosing instructions
• Always return medications to their original labeled package
• Keep your first aid kit locked and away from children
