We carry around a break box for our son because he has Osteogenesis Imperfecta. Last week he had a hairline fracture on his leg just from getting dressed. We were just wondering if the first aid stations at the parks would carry anything like cotton roll, ace bandages, surgilast, or stockinette. If we go there with a break would they even do anything or would they send us to the hospital?
 
I am not sure what the first aid station have ( I think when I was there someone asked for an ace bandage and they had that) but I do know that if your son has to go to the ER it is free trip there by ambulance and they give you a free cab ride home. there is a nice hospital very close celebration about 5 minutes so if your son is hurt and has to go he will be taken very good care of
 
They would probably hold a bag of items for you if you wanted to put together a lot of things you would need. They hold medical equipment and medication

this is very true I had a side bag of medical things they held for me no question asked I have even seen a rolling suit case in the first aid area

They will certainly hold medical supplies for you. The times I went there and was doing dialysis, they offered to hold all my fluid and supplies for me for when I needed them. They were terrific.
 
Thank you very much for your replies. It will be good to know we have that option.

1) The DO carry all the items you list.
2) However, if there is a break, they will transport you to Celebration Hospital.
. . . someone qualified from First Aid may take you
. . . most probably, they will call an "Alpha Unit" (aka, paramedics) to treat and to transport *
3) WDW does not like to take chances when there could be liability for improper or incomplete medical care

* WDW does not like the terms "Ambulance" or "Paramedic", so we call them "Alpha Units". This raises less questions, does not create a panic, does not promote fear, nor does it encourage "rubber-neck viewing" in other guests.
 
I hurt my hand and arm in a car accident on the way to Disney and was able to get an ice pack and ace bandage from First Aid. The nurses there were great.
