Safety Director: Build a Compliant, Self-Maintained First Aid Program in 3 Steps

Ready to take back control of your workplace first aid program? As a safety director, you already know the risks of relying on mobile services that may not deliver consistent compliance or transparency.

The good news? With the right tools and a simple plan, you can confidently manage your kits, save money, and stay audit-ready—without adding chaos to your schedule.

Step 1: Inspect

Begin with a visual inspection of all kits across your facility. This helps you understand the types of supplies used and potential injuries that have occurred.

Look for missing, expired, damaged, or partially used items—it only takes a brief minute.

  • Check Expiration Dates – Ointments, wipes, medicines, and burn gels all have “use by” dates.
  • Discard Unsafe Items – Remove expired, damaged, or partially used supplies from service.
  • Schedule a Reminder – Set a recurring inspection date for monthly or quarterly walkthroughs so checks don’t get missed.

Step 2: Replenish

Once you’ve identified what’s missing, choose the replenishment method that fits your needs:

  • Refill Individual Items – Ideal for spot refills and everyday use.
  • Buy a Complete Refill – Replace every required item (except the cabinet) in one shipment.
  • ReStockKit – Unsure what’s missing or where it belongs? Use this visual restocking tool for quick, accurate organization while maintaining ANSI 2021 and OSHA compliance.

Each option ensures you only purchase what you need—nothing more, nothing less.

Step 3: Maintain

Now that your kits are stocked, keep them clean and ready for the next inspection.

  • Sanitize the Cabinet – Use a hard-surface disinfectant on the inside, outside, and door latches.
  • Save a Reorder List in your MFASCO account for quick future reorders.
  • Assign Kit Checks to trained internal staff or integrate them into monthly safety audits.
  • Use Logs – Maintain printed or digital inspection logs for audit or incident investigation readiness.

The Simpler, Smarter Way Forward

You don’t need a contract or a service van to stay compliant. You need a process—and MFASCO gives you the tools to create one that works for your workplace.

Whether you manage a single cabinet or a dozen across multiple departments, you can do this. MFASCO makes it easier than ever.

Start your transition today and empower your safety program with total visibility, full compliance, and zero sales pressure.
