Yay-I got 100% on the quiz! This is a great first aid kit, I would love to win one for my household

I only got 67%. I need to see what I did wrong.

I shared it on my Facebook page, too. Let’s see how my friends do!

Embarrased to say I got 33%. Guess I REALLY need to win this!!

For halloween safety, I make sure my kids costumes do not interfere with safety, like making sure they can see fully out of any masks, making sure their costume is not too long so that they do not trip, etc.

I got 50% so that means I may or may not be able to help. lol

My score… 83% – I would love to win this. Thanks for the information – would be really helpful to have one in churches, daycare centers, schools – I could go on & on.

I am 83% prepared. I wonder which one was incorrect.

I can’t believe I got a t7% too. I thought I’d do better than that.

Just saw my typo- 67%. Wow – should have done better than that!

well, wow. I really thought I was more prepared than what the quiz results suggest. I got a score of 67% prepared. and althought thats more than half and probably a very common score it’s not good enough for me! So I am very eager about this contest. This sounds like a great way to help calm nerves that may otherwise throw you into a stand still which would not be helping anyone in an emergency situation.

Thanks for this wonderful opportunity to win.

I could really use this, I only got 50%.

I only got 50%! Does it share the correct answers? I need to know what I got wrong! LOL.

Shared on Facebook, too.

Steph

Thanks for raising awareness for first aid! I have done CPR to my son and done the Heimlich a dozen times, and my son probably wouldn’t be here today if I hadn’t known what to do in those situations.

Great quiz! It certainly made me think long and hard about situations that could happen within my home to answer those. And the kit – excellent! One can never have too much information at home even if 911 is readily available.

Steph, you can find the answers to the quiz, here: http://www.5minutesformom.com/first-aid-quiz/.

[...] do you have any Halloween safety tips that you could share with us? If so head over here, and leave a safety tip in our comment section. One commenter, on that page, [...]

While Halloween is fun for both children and adults, it does not come without its risks. More child accidents happen on Halloween than on any other holiday. The American Academy of Pediatrics offers a number of helpful, common sense tips on making Halloween safe for everyone involved: http://www.justaskbaby.com/blogs/professor-elkind/halloween-fun-safety

I think being visable is the biggest safety tip. I carry a cute pumpkin covered flashlight. My oldest wears light up shoes and has a flashing necklace and a matching pumpkin flashlight. I also give them glowsticks to wear and play with.

we have the kids wear those glow bracelets. helps them see and know we’re all accounted for. thanks for the chance to win!

My parents always went through all of our candy after trick or treating to make sure it was safe to eat.

I got a 67%. Yay?

hmm i got 67% which it told us what we got wrong

We have the kids wear the glow necklaces and bracelets like some of the other commenters. It really helps keep them visible.

i got 83%. now i know to cover both eyes during an eye injury! thanks!

I got 67% . My tip for Halloween is dont eat candy that is not wrapped.

Hmm, 50% that is pretty bad. Like a pp above our girls wear flow bracelets when out at night. We only go to neighbors that we know and still inspect all candy. Plus I pull out most of it and send it with my husband to work b/c they won’t eat it anyway.
Great giveaway, thanks!

We only go trick-or-treating within our neighborhood to people’s homes we know. We also inspect the candy afterwards.
Thanks for the chance,

I forgot to post that I am 67% prepared — not terrible, but I do need some work!

My kids are still pretty young so we set out just before dusk and only trick or treat for about an hour. Our neighborhood has big lots with long, dimly-lit driveways so we usually drive to a more Halloween-friendly area.

I make sure the costumes are not to long (tripping), I have them stand away from jack=o=lanterns (fire) and we only go in our own neighborhood

I also got 67%. We don’t let our kids go out TorT without us. Of course, we check the candy. We always carry flashlights. The almost never wear masks. We also make sure they have a big dinner before we go out so they don’t feel like eating candy LOL We don’t have a first aid kit at ALL, just some band aids – FAIL. Lol

67% for me. OOPS!
We take our daughters to the mall. Not only is it safe, but we know the candy will be safe too.

I got 83%,I must say I was surprized,Im a retired Nurse an thought I knew a few things but I guess I have a lot to learn,espically since im watching my young grandsons now while their mom works

Wow I only got 67%, whoops!
Our kids carry glow sticks & we only trick or treat at friends houses. That way we don’t have to worry about the candy!

My kids use glow sticks, sometimes carry it or wear it as jewelry. We only go to houses of neighbors we know. I carry a flashlight and an extra one in my pocket in case the other flashlight quits working. I also carry my children’s identity in case the worst would happen and somene took off running with my children.

I only got a 67% which totally suprises me. I have been in situations where I was a first responder and I received compliments on a job well done.

I only got 67% but two of the questions were toss-ups for me. Something like this would be very good for me because I …um… tend to lose my head in an emergency, despite theoretically knowing what to do.

We don’t trick or treat and are probably not going to even when Elizabeth is old enough, but when my sister was little and I took her around we always held hands.

Cool, I got 100% That’s reassuring!

I haven’t been out trick or treating in years. But I make sure to remind my nieces that they need to stay by their Dad and I also make sure each of them knows their important personal info. One tip is to only visit houses you know the people at or avoid going door to door and attend a Halloween party that night instead.

One of my Halloween Safety tips is that I always make sure that I walk closer to the curb (outside) and the kids walk on the inside. And no one crosses the street without an adult.

As for the test, I got a 50%. Bummer.

Doh! I only got a 50%. This product looks simply amazing. Very cool!

I got 100% ready in a medical emergency- but the situation was calm when taking the test. I’ve often wondered when that moment happens, will it all still be there for me to remember to do so well!?! Panic, stress has a way of taking over, especially when it comes to a child or a loved one.

What a fantastic idea, what a real life saving concept! Thank you for the opportunity.

I only got 50% – eek – not good. I haven’t had a bad situation yet, but I see myself as going into panic mode. Good thing is…my husband was a medic in the Army for 10 years – bad news is…he’s not always home!! And…I can foresee many trips to the emergency room in my future – my son is four year old MADNESS…lol

As far as Halloween goes, I always sort through my child’s candy…but we only go to certain neighborhood houses and then our church’s trunk-or-treat. I also try to go to the neighborhood homes early, before it gets dark.

What a great first aid kit – I’m loving this!!

I always remember having to wear reflective tape on my costume. I don’t have children yet, but certainly have a number of nieces and nephews…this is a great reminder. I’m going to post it on my FB and Blog for friends and family.

50% In my defense… I only knew 1 of those songs…

I think a lot of us got 67%….that’s 4 out of 6…..I was surprised at the questions I got wrong. I’d like to think I’d do better in an ER. I’m always told that I’m good to have around when something happens because I can stay calm, BUT I fall apat later when everyone else is calmed down. So I get to look like a dummie all my myself! LOL Very good post & quiz,girls, thanks!

I only missed one…YEAH….but with having had 4 kids and now on my 7th grand kid you really have to know what to do and how do it….time matters….would love love love to win this kit….smiles to all…..:)

I got a 67% and that surprised me! First aid is so important, everyone should be educated. Our safety tip during Halloween is that we never go to someone’s house that we don’t know. I did that when I was a kid but we just don’t feel safe doing it now in the 21st century. Which is really sad.

I got 67%. I need to see what questions I missed!

This sounds amazing! Also sounds like something that would be helpful in teaching children about first aid… at least the older ones.

I got a 83% on your quiz. I missed the eye question.

I got a 83% on your quiz. I missed the eye question. Oh, about Halloween safety. I took the kids to the zoo this year for trick or treat. I think it’s a lot safer than some of the neighborhoods. There are a lot of crazy people out there.

I always check my childre’s candy before they eat it to make sure that it’s safe to eat. Also, they always take a flashlight with them.

I scored 100%, but it is still time for me to update my first aid and CPR certifications, they expire the end of November.

[...] week, over at our dedicated Intelligent First Aid™ page, we are talking CPR. We would love to hear your stories, so please join us. One commenter will win [...]

I took CPR certification as a teenager and again in college, and have had a few refresher courses. Thankfully i have never had to use it on my children….but I always wonder what I would do in that situation. Thank you for the opportunity to win this First Aid Kit! I would love to have this in our home of wild llamas!

oh and i got a 67% on the test….I guess i am a little rusty!

I got 83%. this would be great to teach my kids with!

for safety, we go to Fall Festivals instead of trick-or-treating and my kids got gobs of candy!

Great idea – I like how they organized the kit by subject area too.

Forgetting the CPR steps in an emergency has always worried me because I usually have a hard time remembering the steps the day after a CPR refresher class.

i took a first aid course in school 10 years ago, but i don’t think i remember enough now for it to be useful.

and i got an 83% on the quiz… not too bad. missed the gauze question.

I got a 67%. I think I need it.

Sadly, I only got 50% correct. Hope I’m not faced with anything too major in the near future!

Well, I got 50% on the first aid quiz…very embarrassed. I took a First Responder’s class quite a few years ago; I guess I need a refresher course ASAP!

I new infant CPR when my son came home from the NICU but would love to know what it should be for his age now!

I subscribe to the newsletter.

I got 100%, but i was an emt I think everyone should get cpr certified,especially moms!

When my youngest daughter was born premature, I had to take a CPR class at the hospital before I could bring her home (she was on a monitor and was still very tiny when she got home). I also had my caregiver take the course before she started watching over her. I am very happy that we did, because one day while I was at work, my daughter stopped breathing and my caregiver was able to resuscitate her before the ambulance arrived. Now, both of my older daughters are in the healthcare field and are well-versed in CPR, so they gave me lessons (I just got a lesson on the ‘new’ CPR) last week. Hopefully, I’ll never have to use it, but if I do, at least I’ll know I’m prepared.

According to the quiz, I am only 50% prepared for a medical emergency

I got 83% on the quiz – didn’t know about covering an eye injury.

I got a 83%. I should have scored much higher!

Honestly I think if it wasn’t a family member I’d be okay but if it was one of my kids I’d lose it. Which I know is not what to do.

YIKES! 50%! Perhaps I am not qualified to care for my children!

I also got 100% on the quiz, but I’m a a registered nurse, so that’s to be expected. I have personally used CPR on countless occasions, as I work on a Medical Surgical Floor.
Here’s my personal CPR story. I was 7 years old and I was settling in with my parents in our new apartment in NY, we were busy unpacking. All of a sudden, a frantic woman bursts through our front door with a purple faced toddler in her arms screaming “Please help, my baby is choking!” My Dad was also a Registered Nurse (back in those days that was nearly unheard of) I watched as My Dad, my Hero, performed CPR -after the heimlich maneuver- so deftly and swiftly to get that little girl breathing again.It turns out that she had an animal cracker lodged in her throat. I knew from that day on that I would be a nurse like my Dad.

I think that the Intelligent First Aid™ kit is wonderful, organized and really a must have in any home, and well worth the price. As a matter of fact, I am a long time Girl Scout leader and I’d love to have this for my Junior troop to use and learn from. Many times in emergency situations, even the most experienced people can get somewhat panicky (especially if its our own family) and the embedded audio chips, color guidebook and medical essentials all neatly available at your fingertips is wonderful and beyond priceless!

The hospital that I work for in Chesepeake, VA holds basic first aid, various CPR courses and babysitting certification courses for the community approximatley every 6-8 weeks.

http://twitter.com/Twincere/status/5425031379

Yowza — I got 50% That’s sad. I am certified in CPR though! At least I have that going for me…

WhooHooo I got a 100%! Fantastic quiz and the kits are awesome!

I got the ABC question wrong :S

[...] it’s that time again. This week we are closing the Intelligent First Aid and I Met a Moose in Maine One Day giveaways. Please remember to add contests5m4m(AT)gmail(DOT)com [...]

I got 83% – I’m curious to know where I missed…

We are currently planning to “REVIEW” our First Aid information in a near future.

Obviously I need to refresh course… LOL

Wow, I’m embarrassed to admit I only scored 33% – pretty disturbing. Time to refresh my first aid, that’s for sure. We did it 3 years ago, before the twins were born – but I have forgotten a lot of it.

My biggest safety tip for trips with kids is make sure the car seat is installed properly, particularly in cars you are not usually in, like cabs or rentals.

I got 33%, and now I am scared.

I am always on the road between Philadelphia and NY, so my advice is to buckle up, not texting, not cellphones…
I will post on facebook

I got 83%
I never heard of song that was the same beats for cpr. pretty interesting.
We always have bandaids and cream, and extra blankets in the car, but im not really prepared for anything else.

33% at 4AM… maybe I’d do better after a good night sleep? Anyway, great product, thanks for letting us know about it!

33%. Oops, I better go look at the right answers.

[...] this holiday season? Sometmes emergencies happen and we want you to be prepared, so we are giving away a Talking Safe Traveler Intelligent First Aid Kit. The emergency care packs in the kit include [...]

Hi! What a great campaign to have! I got 100% last go around, and have been telling all my friends and twitter folks to stop by! Proper First Aid is a very important skill that we are often under-prepared for, so I am excited about the chance to win these supplies for my family and me!

Hmmm. Only two thirds correct……

I always leave bandaids in the car. With 3 boys, you never know when you might need one!

33%, definitely not good. Bringing out my CPR material now to restudy. Looks like a great product.

great item!

I only scored 50% please don’t tell my Boy Scouts.

Only a 67%, Guess I need some help!

I never even heard of a talking first aid kit. What a wonderful idea!

Tip for trips with children. Make sure the children have a book, game, cd player, etc.. or something to keep them busy.

Traveling tip: Always be aware of what is going on around you.

Safety tip: Stay on the main roads and avoid taking shortcuts down narrow alleys and/or poorly lit streets.

Safety tip: Be careful about sharing your traveling plans with strangers, especially on Twitter, Facebook, etc..

I should have done better than 50%. I misread a question. I didn’t know both eyes should be covered after a one-eye injury, but it makes sense. Thanks for this great quiz!

I am 83% prepared.

I will be traveling through 5 states this Christmas with my boys and one thing I always think about is to stop in places with plenty of people around.

Safety Tip: Keep an aloe plant in the kitchen to use in case of burns. What a useful plant to have! I love mine though I’ve never used it on myself. Those in my household who have are impressed by the soothing the aloe provides by simply breaking off a piece and applying the serum onto the burn wound as soon as possible.

I try to minimize stops by doing as much as I can each time we stop. Such as gas, food and bathroom at the same time. It saves so much time as we travel.
wmmahaney(at)att(dot)net

I use family restrooms at reststops if they are available. As a mom traveling with boys, I do not like them going into bathrooms without me.
wmmahaney(at)att(dot)net

Always stop in well lighted areas.
wmmahaney(at)att(dot)net

Be well rested before starting the trip.
wmmahaney(at)att(dot)net

WooHoo I know what I am doing….100%

What a great idea for those times you can’t think in panic!

I DO panic in most cases. This is exactly what I need in the car and the house. (I only got 1 right)

I totally need a first aid kit! Exactly what every car needs!

This is the 3rd place I have commented….hope I get the right place. I panic and this is a great thing to have in my home and car. Thank you for making it known.

Embarrased to say I got 33%

I only got a 17% and I really thought I would do better then that. That’s a little scary, I would love to have this first aid kit. I want my daughter to always be in good hands!

I need one in my car. I only got a 67% on the test, which is surprising. Learned some new things!

I would love this for our trips

I only got a 50% – wow! Thanks for posting the correct answers so I could learn what I obviously didnt know before

Make sure when you get to 1/4 tank of gas to fill it up again! Don’t take a chance on getting stranded out in the middle of nowhere.

Always carry knives, scissors, and sharp objects with the sharp point down towards the ground, not pointed out away from you or towards you.

If you are driving through the desert or areas where you know that cell phone coverage may fail, tell the people at your destination what time to expect your arrival and your exact driving route.

When you set out for long drives through the desert (I live in AZ), make sure to take lots of drinking water with you just in case your car breaks down.

Make sure your cell phone is fully charged before you set out on a long drive through rural or otherwise unaccessible areas.

Have a first aid kit in your car. Also keep a blanket and/or coat in the trunk.

Do not drive when you are sleepy. Pull over and take a nap, OR get some kind of caffeinated drink if you must continue the journey.

I would love to win this kit, we would use it for our soccer team. Our coach from last year quite but before he did that he drained our bank account, he wrecked all our equipment and he alienated our sponsor. So we are basically starting from scratch. So this would be amazing for me to win for the team.

50%…wow I am a loser…maybe I will win the prize!!

Yikes! I only got a 50% too! Guess I need this kit, thanks. Hope I win!

I made 1 67, Yikes, I guess I need to win in case of an emergency.

We always take our baby monitors with us when we travel. Though our kids are preschool-aged now, it helps us make sure we can hear them during the night if we’re staying in a rental house and aren’t able to have bedrooms close together.

Thanks,
Megret

i need one because i urgently need one! Just got 50% on the test!! i read someone had 100%….

I only got 50%! How sad is that? It’s a good thing I don’t have kids at home anymore. I need this.

lkish77123 at gmail dot com

Since we are all adults our safety includes proper air in tires and seat belt use mainly.

lkish77123 at gmail dot com

Not too bad!

I don’t have a first aid kit in my car. I got 67% that wasn’t too bad!

i only let the kids out on the sidewalk side of the car.

I am 100%

I only got 33%!

I scored 50%. With two young children, 50% is not good enough to save them in my opinion!

I always have a plastic shoe box full of things that children may need when they get hurt or sick. I include a trash bag (for throwing up), wipes, sanitizer, Motrin, Bandaids, Bug Spray, Antibotic ointment, anti-itch ointment, and some other random things. I can know that I will have whatever I need if an emergency arises.
Try to have games or new songs or new snacks or new coloring books to give them something fresh or different to anticipate.

I am not very good at having first aid items around. After reading this it has reminded me to do better. I don’t even think I have bandaids in my diaper bag or glove box. When accidents happen though I tend to remain calm now because if I am calm my daughter does not cry so hard or even at all sometimes.

this would be super-handy to have while traveling in the car. always be prepared! thanks!

i subscribe! thanks!

I travel alone to Chicago a lot to visit my family. This would definitely make me feel a little safer when we go. As far as safety tips go, I make sure the kids always hold on to a grown ups hand or grocery cart when we’re at the store. You never know when a car could pull out just like that!

I got a 50% on the quiz. Guess I need to learn a bit!

Only a 50% – how embarrassing, and enlightening! I think I need this kit more than I realized!! Thanks so much

I really don’t have any safety tips. When I’m decorating, I don’t feel like I’m thinking about safety, and that’s just terrible. I’m afraid I’m an accident waiting to happen.

Safety measures include regular seatbelt use, and being alert and aware of your surroundings. (Geared for adults)

I scored 83%. The bee sting question stumped me. I guess most of us could use this emergency kit.

really informative i scored 50% thought for sure i would have aced it.Good to be prepared for these times

33% correct means I need this kit!

When we decorate for the holidays, mainly Halloween and Christmas, the first thing we do is make sure all light cords and extension cords we use are intact. Also, when using extension cords, make sure that they aren’t laying where foot traffic is, so that nobody can trip on them and fall, or trip on them and pull something down, causing injury. We also make sure that even though our lights really don’t get hot, I like to make sure that there is nothing touching the lights, like sheer curtains, etc, that could catch fire.

i am a nurse i got 100 % of the answers. it was easy because of my field of work.

[...] this holiday season? Sometmes emergencies happen and we want you to be prepared, so we are giving away a Talking Safe Traveler Intelligent First Aid Kit. The emergency care packs in the kit include [...]

I got a 67%. Looks like i need a ‘talking kit’ to help me in an emergency!!

Yay I received a 100%! This kit would be great to have on hand. You just never know when you might need it!

I got a 67%… but the answers were a little ambiguous… yeah. I am not prepared. Please give me a kit to make me prepared… anyone?!

Yikes, I only got 83%. Now I need to see what I missed.

Being a single parent to two young boys, my score of 33% has really shocked me and shown my lack of first aid knowledge. Thanks for the test. I definitely have to brush up on my knowledge

I am 100% prepared. I would love to win this.

My tip for holiday safety. When burning candles during the holidays (or any time of year really) I burn Gold Canyon candles. I have 8 children and children are drawn to the fire on candles. The wax Gold Canyon uses will not burn if it gets spilled on someone. I of course always keep them up and out of the way but know that if they got knocked over my child would not be burned makes me feel better about burning candles.

I got 100% on this quiz!

Well, at least this time I got a 83%. My confidence in first aid just went up a bit from yesterday’s 50%.

I would have done all the wrong things!Scored 33% I didn’t realize how dangerous i could be!I definitely need a First Aid kit!!!Thank-you for the quiz!

I’m afraid to take the test LOL I know I not good at first aid

I got 50% and then took the other quiz to beef up my studying. Off to read more…
By the way – loved the Stayin’ Alive fact! So helpful when remembering CPR compression facts.
My tip – what to ask a stroke victim when you suspect a stroke. A – C – T. Can I remember what it stands for…no. Darn.

My score was 83 but i could have done better.

I got an 83%. I missed the burn question cause I said cold water instead of cool. I did learn something which is the point.

We use timers for our outdoor lights and indoor tree, that way you don’t have to plug and unplug your decorations and risk getting shocked. Especially outdoors in the damp weather.

We probably spend a little more time thinking of safety with the outdoor decorations, since they’re often on while we’re not home. Mostly we consider wind and wet, which is what we have all fall and winter here, and use timers for everything. The outside plugs are individual gfis as well.

[...] this holiday season? Sometmes emergencies happen and we want you to be prepared, so we are giving away a Talking Safe Traveler Intelligent First Aid Kit. The emergency care packs in the kit include [...]

I am only 67% ready apparently! oops.

Wow – I only got 67%. that stinks. I used to be CPR and First Aid certified (like 4 years ago). I’m embarassed.

Ok, Ok so I have to admit it… I thought I would get a 100% considering I am a full time super-mom and a full time college student, (even if I’m majoring in Psychology, one would think that subject would apply…right???) But, I got a 67% which was a good eye opener for me… It means I am not as prepared as I thought I was and where I need to get more information, so I could live up to my “Super Mom” status. Thanks a million for the quiz… and perhaps the winner of this safety kit will appreciate having the tools provided to help others out in a time of crisis.

Many Warm Smiles,

Amy

we try to be safe during the holiday by noy leaving lights on when we re not home.

outdoor fun in the winter includes sledding and playing in the snow – although we sometimes have to drive to the snow

I made 100%

travel safety includes taking a blanket in case you get stranded and need to keep warm

I like to make sure that my lights cords are tucked away from little hands and feet. I also only put the glass tree decorations on the top half. It may look a little funny, but it’s better than having broken glass and cut little fingers!
Thanks for the chance! This looks great!

100%, yes! I would love to have this kit for my car!

I managed a 67% but found myself guessing at nearly all questions. Pretty pathetic.

Wow! That’s an amazing gift idea. I would love to have a talking first aid kit. Many times I could have used one already Please count me in as a grateful and interested contestant! What will they think of next?

We have switched to an artificial tree after a near disaster with a dried out spruce! ladyhightower@live.com

I scored an 83%….better than I thought I would. I’m not sure I would do well under pressure though. Hopefully this type of first-aid kit would help. Thank you!

I think I really need this! Didn’t do as well as I would have thought on the quiz…..hmmmm.

Thank you so much for the much needed information…God bless

Very Nice!!!
We could use this around our house for all the bumps and bruises we encounter!

i got an 83%

Not so much a “tip” as a reminder – lots of pretty holiday plants, like poinsettias, are POISON to kids, cats, etc.

I’d love to win a Talking Safe Traveler – it sounds like a very intelligent idea for a crisis!

I’m a proud subscriber to 5 Minutes For Mom!

Yay! 100%!!!
thanks for the chance to win!

I got 100% on the first & 67% on the second quiz.

I’m a subscriber

This year we are going to attach the tree to the ceiling with a wire. Last year it was knocked down twice by kids & once by the dog!!

I only got an 83% on the quiz. I guess I could use a bit more education in first aid.

At any holiday the one way we try to keep our kids safe is to watch what food is being served and if we are at someone house find out ahead of time what food will be served. My child has a life threatening allergy to many foods and it is the best way to keep her safe.

I got an 83 on the quiz

we keep our tree out of the way of foot traffic and also no garland or tinsel as the cat and two year old like the shiny stuff and no ornaments that can fit in a toilet paper roll babygirl still puts things in her mouth and I really don’t want to have her choke on something I could have prevented

Oh wow. I got 50% =( I’d love to have the kit for my 3 kids

Woohoo – I got 100%
Thanks so much for the giveaway!

Please enter me – thanks!

I got a 83% I would love this kit for my family of 6!!

I got an 83 but i still need the kit,if it came down to a real emergency i definetly would know what to do.

I work at a Nursing School so we have several first aid kits available and a whole building full of people who can do more than just basic first aid. )

When I was working the first aid kit was kept at the manager’s area where it was readily accessible. I’d love to have a kit like this at home. We live 75 miles from the nearest hospital, so it could come in handy!

Hmmm, I got a 67%. Guess I need to brush up a bit!

I subscribe for e-mails.

I follow you on twitter, and I tweeted.

Yahoooo! I got 100%, that’s so cool since I’m in college to be an RN! I hope we win this would awesome to have when we travel by car!

Got only 67%, time to review some first aid tips! Thanks for the chance to win.
Heather

I got 83%, so I could use a few pointers.

Can’t believe I made a D. 67%

Would love to win one of these kits. I guess I really need it since I made a D.

It appears this grandma is in dire need of emergency savvy. Help me, please!

We’re pretty prepared. I married a fire-medic so it comes part and parcel with this family. Our older son knows the number to call in an emergency, how to actually do so on a phone, our address and other pertinent information. Should we be in a crash, we also have all of our ICE information easily accessible.

We had about a 6 month stockpile and I am happy that we did. My dh got laid off and we have had to use it…down to about a 4 month supply….that’s what it was there for.

I got 50% on my quiz – thank goodness my husband have survival training while in the army.

We always put the kids in PJ’s and traveled at night. The kids slept and did not distract us. Also there were less cars on the road. This always worked for us.

I only got a 67% on the quiz – and I just took a class on first aid, yikes!

I would really like to start doing fire drills here with my girls. My kids are still pretty young (oldest of 3 is 3 years), but I think they would be able to at least have fun with the fire drill and hopefully remember it if it really happened. We also have 72 hour kits for our family (that need some updating…) and a food storage with a year supply of food. I still need to get non food items for storage as well as cash.
Question: what age do you teach to call 911? I’m afraid that if I teach them, they will call it regularly!
Thanks for bringing emergency preparedness back to the top of my brain.

Oh, I am also a nurse, so I am CPR certified, as well as more advanced certifications. THat’s nice to have for emergencies too!

[...] left to enter to win a complete Talking First Aid kit from Intelligent First Aid. Our final Talking First Aid kit giveaway ends on [...]

We’ve taught our kids basic first aid, when to call 911 and home safety. It’s a constant education though.

Yeah I did good this time. I scored 83%. : )

I got an 83%. I put don’t keep adding clothes to the wound when it was really supposed to be don’t keep it level. Guess I learned something.

I feel like we’ve taught our kids the basics of 911, our phone numbers/address, how to get out and where to go if there’s a fire, but there’s so much more to teach them!

I scored 67% — not what I want it to be! We do have a fire escape plan, a fire ladder for upstairs, and the kids know when and how to dial 911. My husband and I have both taken 2 CPR classes since our first child was born, but you are right — stress and adrenaline sometimes cause a brain lapse. It’d be nice to have a kit that told me what to do!

Thanks for the chance,

I just realized my score should have been in a separate comment — sorry — 67%.

I am all for emergency awareness. DH and I have been stock piling canned food, non-perishables and water but we need more. We also have many candles and keep our flashlights in a designated place (same place we hide from a tornado). We will be moving to a two-story house soon and we will be investing in a fire escape ladder and we will have fire drills. Fire scares me to death. Both of us have taken at least one CPR class. We have small first aid kits (one in each vehicle and one in the house (all need updating). Thank you for your website.

Wow! I got a 100% on your second quiz. Good quiz.

I think everybody needs a first aid kit of some kind!

OOsh – I only got 67%

I teach CPR and First aid so hopefully I am a little prepared As far as my home….we have a little food storage and a carbon monoxide detector. Us newlyweds are slow to get going I guess.

Luckily I got 100% on part 1 and part 2 first aid quizzes. Teaching CPR and First Aid is paying off!

what a great idea & an even more wonderful of a give away! I’m embrassed to say what I got on the quiz……..well, I guess a 77% isn’t too bad…yes it is! But living here in FL. we’re made to be more aware of being prepared. Especially since the hurricanes of 2004 & 2005! So I do have a hurricane box of supplies that include food, flashlights,new batteries every year,a radio & all the things I wish I’d had for the first time. Thanks for another great give away!

Great item to have in preschool class sometimes you need a reminder that you dont know as much as you thought you did. thank you

Wow. I didn’t know anything like this existed. it’s awesome. I know when My oldest boy was a baby I had to perform CPR on him often because his lungs were not fully developed and he would turn blue. Without the proper training he would have died. This kit woud be a godsend.

I got 83% on the second quiz

We have been trying to get 72 hour kits ready for the 3 of us. My husbands and mine are almost done, but we need to improve my son’s. Until recently, he was nursing so I wasn’t too worried about food for him, but now he is weaned so we need to get something together for him. We also have a longer term food storage, but that won’t help much if we have to leave the house. We have a carbon monoxide detector too. We need to get a fire escape plan ready though. I guess we are prepared in some ways and not in others.

I’m surprised! I got 100% right! I’d love to win this prize…it would be an asset for everyone.

I did so badly I didn’t even see the percent. I know I am not prepared for an emergency. I have white wash cloths, does that count?

This would be great to give to my two sons, one is in the US Marines and the other is a grad student.

I got an 83%. Not too bad, but I still get anxious thinking about whether or not I will know what to do in an emergency.
Thanks for a great giveaway!

We are not prepared at all! Living on the coast I know I should be more prepared as well. This is such an awesome contest!

I am subbed to your RSS feed.

i got an 83% … not too bad

Well, I got 100%, but only after retaking the test 5 times. I kept getting 83%, and the ones I got wrong, were so close, so I HAD to keep going until I got it all right. Now, I know what to do! (But only in those exact situations …)

This would be a really great thing to win… thanks for the chance.

I also subscribe!

I have to admit that I am NOT as prepared as I need to be for emergencies and this is a great reminder ~ Thanks!

I got a 67 on the quiz…very interesting reminderS!

I’ve watched many videos and sat through classes, however I do not know if I will remember any of it in an emergency situation. This would be great to have at home with little ones.

I am not as prepared as I should be. We have talked with the kids about where to meet should there be a fire and we escape through different doors/windows but we have not practiced anything. We usually have extra food in the house but nothing labeled for an emergency! We should think through some of this. Thanks!

I took the quiz and it said I got 67% but I only missed one question. Very interesting information though! Thanks!

I got 100% ~ have to keep up on this stuff for my daycare. I can always use another first aid kit.

I have an emergency backpack filled with all the essentials for our family and pets, in case of an earthquake or somehting similar. But that is about it. This is a great kit and I would love to win it.

Thanks.

aside from knowing cpr and basic first aid skills..my house isn’t the most prepared for an emergency

50%, yikes. I need this.

I received an 83% missed the beesting. Would love to win silenttributary(at)yahoo(dot)com

I dont think anyone is prepared mentally 4 an emergency cause it happens so fast sometimes our minds go blank but in that case we were up against an emergency would react to the best that we know how.Nombodys perfect,we all make mistakes in emergency situations even doctors..lol

I passed the first test 100% but not the 2nd one

This is a must have with kids.

i’d really like to win this with 5 kids something like this would be great to have my baby (13mts) was chokeing a few days ago and i almost had to call 911 it was the scarest thing ever!
