First-Aid Supplies and Cabinet

Help me give my students emergency supplies such as band aids, pads, tampons, and cough drops, as well as a storage cabinet to store these supplies in.

My Project

My students often ask for consumables such as band aids, pads, tampons, cough drops, paper towels, and face masks, just to name a few. Accidents happen almost daily, and handy clean-up and first-aid supplies are a must. Such supplies minimize distractions and keep students on task and learning.

My students know that they can come to me with any emergency that they might have, and they know that I will have the supplies that they need, on hand.

Once emergencies are handled efficiently, both the students and I can return to the task of teaching and learning. I do not like sending students to the nurse for band aids, or to the washroom for paper towels after a classroom spill. Such trips are unnecessary, as students lose valuable class time.

I am asking for a small cabinet so that I may store clean-up and first aid supplies inside the classroom. I would like a cabinet that is easily accessible to both the students and I throughout the day, but, one that I may lock, if need be. I am also asking for a few hygiene items to help replenish my dwindling supply.

I thank you for your time and consideration.
