Catering First Aid Kit
Keep a clearly identified first-aid point in your kitchen or food preparation area with this X Large Catering First Aid Kit. The confirmed model is Aero Healthcare’s HSE-50C. Its catering-focused selection brings everyday wound-care supplies together so staff have a known place to find the items they may need.
The kit is intended for workplaces such as restaurants, cafés, takeaways, hotel kitchens and food production areas. Consider where incidents are most likely to occur and how responders will reach the person needing assistance. A well-positioned kit is easier to locate during a busy service than supplies scattered between cupboards.
Coordinate your workplace first-aid provision across shifts, rooms and separate buildings. The 50-person designation helps with selection, but staff numbers alone do not determine the right arrangements. Your assessment should also cover work activities, hazards, accident history and the availability of trained help.
Make routine stock checks part of managing your medical supplies. Assign responsibility for replacing items after use and checking dated packs, rather than waiting until another incident reveals a shortage. Keep the kit’s location consistent and tell new or temporary colleagues how to obtain first-aid assistance.

Directions for Use
1. Match the kit to your workplace assessment
Review the tasks, hazards, workforce size, shifts and previous incidents in the areas the kit will serve. Confirm the supplies and trained assistance needed for those circumstances. Provide additional equipment wherever your assessment identifies a need, including separate areas that cannot reach the main first-aid point promptly.
2. Set up an accessible first-aid point
Choose an agreed location and install the supplied bracket using appropriate fixings and the manufacturer’s instructions. Keep access clear and make the location known to staff. Include the first-aid arrangements in induction and explain who should be contacted if assistance is needed.
3. Use individual items as instructed
Follow the instructions on each dressing, plaster or other item and use the equipment within your first-aid training. Check the pack condition and expiry date before opening sterile supplies. For serious injuries or uncertainty about the appropriate response, obtain medical assistance promptly.
4. Check, record and replenish the contents
Inspect the kit regularly and after an incident. Replace used supplies, expired items and damaged packs; dispose of them according to the applicable instructions and workplace procedure. Keep a simple contents record so the person responsible for the kit can identify what needs replacing.

FAQs
Which kit is supplied under the X Large catering description?
This listing is for the Aero HSE-50C. Use the model reference and contents table when comparing kits or planning replenishment, as an “extra large” description on its own does not establish which supplies or quantities are included.
Are the plasters suitable for a catering first-aid point?
The kit includes blue detectable assorted plasters. Use them according to the pack instructions and your food-handling procedures. Keep first-aid provision coordinated with the hygiene arrangements for the area where staff work.
Does a 50-person kit cover every workplace with 50 staff?
No single headcount guarantees that a kit is adequate for every site. Review the hazards, work patterns, building layout and available first aiders. A business with separate work areas or higher risks may need additional supplies and more than one accessible first-aid point.
Can the kit be kept on a wall?
A wall bracket is included. Position it where the kit is visible and easy to reach without obstructing the workplace, and follow the mounting instructions. Tell colleagues where the kit belongs so it can be returned to the same location after use.
How should I check the kit remains ready?
Check the contents regularly and after supplies have been used. Look at expiry dates and packaging condition, and replace missing or unsuitable items. If an undated sterile item has an uncertain storage life, check with its manufacturer before relying on it.
Should kitchen burns supplies be assessed separately?
Yes. Consider hot surfaces, liquids and other hazards as part of your workplace assessment and confirm what additional equipment and training are needed. Do not assume every first-aid kit contains specialist equipment; use the contents table to see what is supplied here.
