SAVER Project: Personal Decontamination Kits

Personal decontamination kits are lightweight, ready-to-use kits that allow responders to self-decontaminate or administer aid to a fellow responder following exposure to potentially hazardous materials.  While these kits are not intended to replace a complete decontamination process, they can be used by responders in emergency situations when HAZMAT resources are limited or not available.

Please contact NUSTL@hq.dhs.gov regarding access to the following additional documents: Focus Group Report and Market Survey Report on Personal Decontamination Kits (2007).

Find this project in the FEMA Authorized Equipment List and InterAgency Board Interactive Standardized Equipment List.
