ASTNA Patient Transport: Principles and Practice PDF

I just passed my CFRN and this book was my main reference for it. Great information if you are new to flight nursing and need a go-to textbook.

By Donna R. Whalen

This book is really helpful. I am using it to get my FP-C and it is loaded with all the information that I need for the test. Although not written specifically for paramedics, it is a must for anyone getting ready for the FP-C.
