A single-responder IFAK is too small for a team medic; a full squad aid bag is too bulky for patrol. The gap in between is exactly where a team medic operates — multiple patients, rapid access, no excess weight.
What sits between an IFAK and a full medic pack?
The Mini-Medic Bag Kit occupies exactly that space — built for team medics, paramedics, advanced-trained patrol officers, and RTF medical personnel who need organized, rapid-access trauma supplies for multi-patient scenarios without the bulk of a full pack. Two external pockets carry dedicated holders for four C-A-T® tourniquets in ready-to-deploy position; MOLLE on the sides and bottom takes additional pouches; an expansion zipper grows the main compartment when resupply demands exceed the standard load; and an abrasion-resistant padded back-pouch bottom accommodates breaching tools or heavy secondary items. Inside, clear tear-away pouches and mesh pockets organize hemorrhage, airway, and wound-care supplies by category. Every configuration includes a NAR QuikLitter™ LITE — so the kit doubles as a casualty-evacuation package, rare in this size class. Contents include CoTCCC-recommended items (C-A-T® tourniquets, and Combat Gauze® in the w/Combat Gauze and Advanced builds).

When to Deploy Mini-Medic Bag Kit
- Compact provider kit for patrol medics: The Mini-Medic Bag Kit gives trained medics a ready-to-deploy provider-level kit in a compact bag — ideal for patrol officers with EMT training who want more than an IFAK.
- Vehicle trauma cache: Law enforcement and military vehicles store the kit in tight spaces — door panels, under-seat storage, center consoles — providing immediate provider-level access.
- Range and training medical coverage: Range safety officers and training cadre carry the stocked kit for immediate trauma response during live-fire and combatives training.
- Wilderness expedition medical kit: Guides and remote-area providers carry the kit as a lightweight provider platform that covers hemorrhage, airway, and basic wound management for multi-day trips.
- Civilian prepared-professional carry: Off-duty medical professionals and armed citizens with formal training carry the Mini-Medic Kit as their vehicle or daily carry medical platform.
What's Included (NAR SKU: 80-0954W):
- 1 x Mini Medic Bag — compact, multi-purpose trauma aid bag
- 3 x Clear tear-away pouches (internal main compartment)
- 2 x Mesh inner pouches
- 1 x Larger inner lid pouch
- External drop-down pouch (back panel)
- External expansion zipper for increased load capacity
- MOLLE on sides, bottom and inside back

Best Practice: Inspect the kit's contents on a quarterly schedule and replace any items that are expired or have been opened. Document the inspection date inside the bag lid with a permanent marker.
How Mini-Medic Bag Kit Compares
Mini-Medic Bag Kit vs. Mini-Medic Bag (bag only): The Kit includes pre-configured medical contents alongside the bag — the ready-to-deploy solution. The bag-only listing is for custom loadouts or platform replacement. See both options at tactical-medicine.com.
Mini-Medic Kit vs. individual IFAK: An IFAK provides self- and buddy-aid capability for a single casualty. The Mini-Medic Kit is a provider-level platform with additional adjuncts — the choice for trained medics managing others, not for individual self-aid.
Mini-Medic Bag Kit — Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the Mini-Medic Bag Kit contain CoTCCC-recommended items?
A: Yes. The kit typically includes CoTCCC-recommended hemorrhage control items including C-A-T® tourniquets. Verify current contents against the NAR product specification sheet for the specific SKU.
Q: What level of training is required to use this kit?
A: The Mini-Medic Bag Kit is a provider-level kit. Users should have formal TCCC, TECC, EMT, or equivalent training. Advanced adjuncts in the kit require appropriate scope of practice.
Q: Is this kit available for government procurement?
A: North American Rescue products are available through GSA Schedule and DLA/DIBBS contracts. Contact NAR or an authorized distributor for current NSN and contract vehicle information.
Q: What configurations or SKUs are available?
A: Visit narescue.com or contact an authorized NAR distributor for the current Mini-Medic Bag Kit SKUs and contents configurations. Configuration may vary by color and contents loadout.
Q: How does the Kit differ from a full medic aid bag?
A: Full medic aid bags (NAR-4, CCRK Medic Pack) carry comprehensive provider supply across all MARCH priorities including vascular access, advanced airway, and splinting. The Mini-Medic Kit is a compact starter platform focused on hemorrhage and airway — appropriate for environments where form factor is the primary constraint.
