Description
Decon in a Bag is an ideal decontamination kit for responders and facilities with limited HazMat decontamination resources such as:
- Law Enforcement
- EMS
- Public Health Clinics
- Universities and School Systems
- Urgent Care Centers
Each decon kit contains all the necessary equipment for simple, yet effective decontamination. In general, removing and bagging the victim’s clothing removes over 80% of the contaminants. With Decon in a Bag, you have all the supplies to perform gross field decontamination in a convenient portable vinyl bag.
The objective of gross decontamination is to minimize the effects of the contaminant on the patient as well as decrease the exposure risk to others. Sometimes complete decontamination in the field is not possible. A variety of factors such as adverse weather conditions, lack of privacy, water availability, the type of contaminant and responder safety may influence your ability to thoroughly decontaminate. Having Decon in a Bag on hand in your vehicle or at your facility will strengthen your emergency response capabilities.
