First Aid, Survival and CPR - Waterproof, Reusable, Home And Field Pocket Guide PDF

FIRST AID, SURVIVAL, AND CPR: HOME AND FIELD POCKET GUIDE is far and away the best first aid handbook that I've ever come across. It has a plastic spiral binding, so it lies open and flat at the pages you've located that have the instructions (often illustrated) on handling your emergency. It has tabs (Safety, CPR, Medical, Injury, Enviro, Poison, Disaster, Survive) that help you quickly find the general topic you need. (For example, the "Environmental Emergencies" tab covers altitude sickness, cold-related problems (e.g., frostbite), heat-related problems (e.g., heat cramps), lightning injuries, and water and scuba diving emergencies.)

The instructions are so clearly written, I think almost anyone could manage an uncomplicated delivery of a baby after reading the four relevant, illustrated pages. There is a lot of home and personal safety information (e.g., how to use a fire extinguisher) that is well worth reading in advance of an emergency. Finally, there is an excellent, detailed index that will get you quickly to topics like "choking", "bleeding", or "burns" when you don't have time to guess about the tab location.

I have wanted a first aid manual like this one for a very long time. It is small (3" wide x 6" high x 1" thick), and has laminated (waterproof) pages. The pages are printed on both sides, and although the print is small, I have no difficulty reading it with my normal reading glasses. The whole book will fit into a backpack or glove compartment without taking up a lot of space.

I think that this pocket guide is much more complete, and much easier to use in an emergency, than either the AMA
