Part I of this book includes planning for emergencies. Topics covered are safeguarding your home against accidents, what to tell medical personnel when an emergency situation occurrs and medical charts to fill out for family members.Emergency procedures, i.e., CPR and the Heimlach Maneuver, are highlighted with red on the edge of the book for quick reference. Other areas covered are recognizing medical problems, snake and insect bites and sports injuries. This is a great book to keep with a First Aid Kit.
