I gave away my trauma kit today to a guy I see on the bus all the time. He saw my kit and started a conversation. I was encouraging him to buy a kit for himself, but here's the kicker...
He is a medical professional and barely makes ends meet as a nurse. (He takes the bus with me, after all.)
If someone should be carrying a kit, it should be them.
Maybe what I need to be doing is not just encouraging people to make and carry their own kit, but to make give away kits to nurses to carry in public
