Not classroom incidents. Sideline response.

Designed to manage:

  • Sprains and strains

FAQs

Are these kits compliant with Australian education regulations?

Yes. All kits meet WHS standards and are designed for schools, childcare centres, OSHC, and ELC environments across Australia.

What’s the difference between a school and a daycare kit?

Daycare kits are adjusted for younger children — with smaller dressings, extra saline and more gloves. School kits cover a wider range of injuries, including sports-related ones.

Do we need different kits for excursions or buses?

Yes — many centres use smaller mobile kits for off-site activities. You’ll find suitable excursion and transport kits in this collection too.

Can we customise a kit for our site?

Absolutely. We regularly customise kits for schools, childcare chains and remote centres. Get in touch here.

FAQs

Do any supplies in the first aid kits expire?

Where required an expiry date is on the individual item.

‘Shelf life’ is the term or period during which a component remains suitable for the intended use. An expiry date is the termination of shelf life, after which a percentage of the component, e.g., medical devices, may no longer function as intended.

See below for the expiry dates of our first aid kits contents that have an expiry:

  • Adhesive dressings: 3 years
  • Combine dressing: 5 years
  • Cotton gauze swabs: 5 years
  • Eye pads: 5 years
  • Hydrogel: 2 years
  • Hydrogel dressing: 5 years
  • Non adherent wound dressings: 5 years

  • Wound closures: 2 years
  • Wound dressings: 5 years

What’s the first thing I should do if someone is bitten by a snake?


Call 000 immediately. Keep the person still and calm. Apply a pressure immobilisation bandage and immobilise the limb. Never wash, cut, or suck the bite.

How do the tension indicator bandages work?


They have printed rectangles that turn into squares when the bandage is tight enough. No guesswork. No second-guessing

Are snake bites a risk in winter?


Yes. Australian snakes don’t hibernate—they enter brumation. They’re slower, but still active, especially on warm days or when disturbed.

How long do I have to get help after a snake bite?


There’s no exact timeframe—it varies by snake and person. But the right first aid (like pressure immobilisation) buys you time until help arrives.

Can I use this snake bite kit for spider bites or other emergencies?


Absolutely. It’s also suitable for funnel-web spiders, blue-ringed octopus stings, sprains, fractures, and bleeding.

What makes Assurance kits better than cheaper first aid kits?


They include tension indicator bandages, clear instructions, and high-quality gear built for real Australian conditions—no filler items or cheap imports.

Which snake bite kit is right for me?

Assurance Sanke Bite Kit: Lightweight kit for hikes and vehicles

Assurance Snake Bite Plus: Family/pet-friendly for homes and holidays


Assurance Snake Bite Max: Full gear for broadest range of venomous and non venomous bites and stings. Suits families, outdoor leaders or first responders






Can I use this snake bite kit on children or pets?

Yes, absolutely. Just follow the included step-by-step instructions carefully. These kits are used in schools and by pet owners across Australia.

What are the signs of a venomous bite?


You might see puncture marks, nausea, blurred vision, difficulty breathing, or collapse. But not always—some symptoms are delayed.
