Epi Response Team Go-Kits
Hello Disaster Epis,
We are putting together go-kits for our Epi Response Team and wondering what others have included in their go-kits.. Would anyone be willing to share what they've prepared?
Thanks in advance!

* zippered tote bag w/CASPER or HD logo (something identifiable to add to whatever teams are wearing to make them more "official")
* 2 clipboards
* 3-5 pens
* expandable/accordion folder to hold all the materials for 1-2 clusters (tracking forms, consent scripts, questionnaires, referral, maps, etc.)
In addition, there could be flashlights, ponchos, mini hand sanitizers, mini sunscreens, first aid kits, etc. However, we found that most of these items just make the bag heavy and bulky and are often removed (at least the bigger items)
