The IntelligentFirstAid Kit

This Holiday Season Give the Gift of Safety And it can be Personalized!

Red Bank, NJ (November 2, 2004)—As the holiday season approaches many people are keeping their eyes open for the perfect gift that is useful, practical, and shows how much they care about their loved ones. Whether shopping for a parent with young children, a sports enthusiast, or someone who enjoys working around the house, DLH, Inc., a Red Bank, NJ-based company specializing in first-aid solutions, has the answer: Give the gift of safety with a IntelligentFirstAid Kit.

Recent reports by the National Center for Health Statistics have revealed that injuries kill more Americans under the age of 44 than any other cause including cancer, heart disease, and stroke. In the workplace alone, over 10 million injuries occur annually. The best way to combat these statistics is to be prepared so that a minor injury doesn't needlessly evolve into a critical situation.

"While many people don't like to think about it, injuries happen every day," said Dave Hammond, President of DLH, Inc. "Fast and reliable first aid care can make a big difference in the severity of any injury and the quality of that care starts with a first aid kit that is easy to use and provides helpful advice when stress levels are high and time is of the essence.

"The IntelligentFirstAid Kit is more than just an ordinary first aid kit, which is often not much more than a bunch of bandages stuffed in a box. The IntelligentFirstAid Kit is the first line of defense in ensuring injuries are managed properly until professional medical attention arrives."

Heralded as a revolution in first aid care, the IntelligentFirstAid Kit bucks the usual design of most first-aid kits by organizing supplies into individually labeled and color- coded packs for different types of injuries-from those involving breathing and bleeding to bone fractures and bites & stings. Also included in each convenient pack are detailed instructions on how to treat the most common injuries in each of the categories.

For the holiday season, DLH, Inc. is offering two of its most popular versions of the IntelligentFirstAid Kit: On The Job Grande and On The Job Elite. "On The Job" to treat injuries whether at home, during sports practice, on a family outing, or in the workplace, these kits are packaged in a durable nylon carrying case so they can be stored away for easy access anywhere.

The On the Job Grande® retails for $59.99 and comes complete with nine injury specific supply packs. On the Job Elite®, at $42.99, is more compact with four supply packs that address the most common injury types. Both kits include a 22-page color-coded first-aid instruction booklet. Personalized monogramming is also available.

Individual injury replacement packs can also be ordered to restock used supplies or to customize any kit.

The IntelligentFirstAid On The Job Grande and Elite can be ordered at www.futureoffirstaid.com or by calling (1-888-388-4854).

In 2005, DLH, Inc. will introduce the Talking First Aid Kit, which will offer the same unparalleled ease of use as the Intelligent design, but with step-by-step audio care instructions delivered via a chip affixed to each of the individual injury treatment cards. A press of a button will start, stop, or pause verbal instructions.
