Edition 1 A Practical Guide

By Philip Jevon, RGN, BSc(Hons), PGCE

1 reviews

This portable, quick reference provides comprehensive coverage of first aid procedures and is highly illustrated. Its aim is to enable nurses to effectively and safely provide first aid outside their clinical working environment. However, the principles described will also be useful within the hospital setting and a section at the end of each chapter will describe the appropriate treatment once the patient reaches A&E.

The content of this book is similar to our materials but I have an opportunity to compare our slides with it. So it is very useful for me.
