Knowing how to suture a wound is very important, not only for SHTF situations but for daily routines like going hiking or camping where medical assistance could be a few hrs away. I know this sounds cliche but I honestly can say after watching this video that I feel confident enough to say I could suture a wound if I had to.

I like the way Dr.Bones walks through the procedure and explains all of the steps in an easy to understand “normal person” talk. After watching this video I ordered a suture kit from Amazon. You can buy them here at this fantastic price, too.

If you area able to get a few people in your family or group to learn this skill, it would be a huge value add. Although it is possible to suture your own wounds you will get best results if someone else does it.

After watching recent events unfold and speaking to family and friends, my wife and I decided to start prepping. Preparedness is a big part of our lives now and I would be honored to share some knowledge with you. Here at SHTF Prepping & Homesteading Central we gather the best prepping, survival, homesteading and DIY articles from around the web.
