Or better still, you could just outsource this bit of the work. I had a similar problem and i got in an appropriate institution to come check the place out, the type of work that goes on in each site or department and they provided the needed first aid boxes. You might think it is too much cost to outsoruce it but it is beneficial in the long run.
All the best.
