Essentials Of Immediate Medical Care

This book gives guidance on the response to emergency situations and the treatment of patients during the time up to hospital admission. This 'golden hour' is a vital time, and treatment received during it has a profound effect on eventual outcome. The information in the book is presented in a highly visual notes format for ease of use. "Essentials of Immediate Carebook" has its origins in courses run by the author for the British Association of Immediate Care (BASICS), although for this edition, it has also been made more appealing to paramedics. Clear guidance for coping with emergency situations is not readily available in one place, except for this book.
