2522's ALS/BLS and Airway kit changes

Hello All,

Today we have moved the airway supplies from the Orange ALS/BLS bag to the Green Airway bag on 2522.  The Orange ALS/BLS bag still has a pocket mask in the top flap but all other airway supplies have been moved to the Green Airway Kit.  You may want to take a little time to get familiar with these changes; the Orange bag is a bit lighter now.  If you find something that I missed please let me know or make the change if it isn’t too much trouble.  Thanks Aaron B

  1. Removal of the Yellow Pulse Oximeter unit from the right side pocket.
  2. Moved 4X4’s to the main compartment with the other bandages.
  3. Moved hot & cold packs to the back rear compartment
  4. Moved the new tourniquet tool to the back rear compartment
  5. Removed the Precision BGL meter
  6. Moved the tape to the main compartment
  7. Moved one trauma shear to back rear compartment
