We spend a lot of time trying to stay healthy. We exercise, eat right, and get check-ups and screenings. But how many of us take the time to prepare for a medical emergency, with the right information and equipment handy? Most patients I see are not prepared to come to the emergency department. They don't know their medical problems. Therefore, this book will help you recognize those symptoms or signs. In additional, you will know how to aid an incident after reading this amazing book.
The book's main part include:
- First aid basics, including roles and responsibilities of a first aider, managing an incident, activating emergency services, and infection control
- Lifesaving skills including the recovery position, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and use of an automated external defibrillator (AED)
- Minor injuries and conditions, including soft tissue injuries, splinters, blisters, eye injuries, nosebleed, diarrhea, and vomiting
- Traumatic injuries including severe bleeding, amputation, shock, fractures, crush injuries, burns, and head and neck injuries
- Medical emergencies including heart attack, stroke, asthma, anaphylaxis, hypoglycemia, meningitis, seizures, poisoning, and emergency childbirth
- Environmental conditions including hypothermia, frostbite, heat stroke, sunburn, and lightning strike
- Pediatric emergencies and illnesses, including assessing an unresponsive child or baby, pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), choking, croup, and febrile seizures

With an appendix featuring an A-to-Z list of every condition covered, it's easy for you to quickly find the exact information you need in any situation you may face.
