Co-authored by a paramedic with a technical review by a physician, this book is a survival guide for the home, covering everything from: how to perform CPR and the essentials of a first aid kit; how to decide if it is an emergency; the ABCs of making and securing a splint; dealing with heart pains and choking; how to handle electrical injuries, pool injuries and more; and how to set up and implement an emergency plan.
