One of the first things we got taught in first aid was “there’s nothing in a first aid kit that can save a life”. This probably needs a bunch of caveats to make it absolutely factually true, but it’s worth generally bearing in mind.
(My actual first aid kit includes a pair of trauma shears, which I think could save a life in a non-negligible amount of emergency circumstances.)
Well, most of the point of first aid kits (and first aid training) in serious situations is stabilization, which could indeed save lives in the situation where a ambulance/professional is in the way.
