That is a very important aspect of the book. Some chapters, like the Bites and Stings chapter, can be omitted depending on what country or region you are. Each reader can choose the information they think may be necessary for them.Shakiera Reece wrote: ↑02 Oct 2021, 00:37 This book deserves a 4-star rating. I like how helpful and informative it is. It's good to know at least first aid procedures in case of medical emergencies. I like how the author allows you to jump to the section that best suits you. That was very thoughtful

The fact that the information comes from an experienced medical professional makes the book excellent. An emergency can happen at any time, the important thing is to call an ambulance; but knowing a few basic things is also necessary.Omega_01 wrote: ↑02 Oct 2021, 04:06 I think the book deserved a four stars rating because of the information it contains and the experience of the author. A book that educates the public on how to manage emergency health situations is invaluable most especially when it comes from a professional. Indeed, the four stars in deserved.

Without a doubt, the information on how to act in the event of a heart attack should be read carefully by everyone. You must act in the first minutes so that the person can be saved.lumenchristi wrote: ↑02 Oct 2021, 11:21 My overall opinion of the book is that it is very informative. It avail the readers necessary first aid instructions in the case of emergency and how to prevent survivable medical conditions. These fact is what i like most about the book. I will gladly recommend the book to others because everyone deserves to know first thing to do in time of accident or medical attack. I will rate the book 4 out of 4 stars.

It can happen, there is no guarantee that a health professional is properly trained. The book can be study material for them.

I also liked the addition of herbal therapies along with traditional medicine. I was worried about downloading this to my Kindle instead of getting a hard copy, but it works just fine on the Kindle.
Many drugs sold in pharmacies are obtained from plants. It is valuable that the author mentions alternatives that have a scientific basis that corroborate their value.

I agree with you. No one is safe from harms and you never know when you can be called upon to help save someone. Its a great book and totally deserving of 4 stars.Anilllll wrote: ↑02 Oct 2021, 00:49 Overall opinion is that this book is useful with valuable information about medical care. I like the detailing of the author which makes everyone easy to understand and nothing disliked about as the author did a good job describing everything for every kind of reader. I'll recommend this book to everyone because life emergencies can happen anytime so if someone has read this book or have the knowledge that the book contains then they can save someone's life.

I have never thought about it in that context but i can agree that this book needs to be paired up with other more comprehensive texts for readers who want an in depth look into how to help save people. However, its also an excellent stand alone book and it gives the reader the necessary details in easy to understand text.TopaAzul062 wrote: ↑13 Oct 2021, 15:55 It will make a nice addition to someone's first aid reference book arsenal. It breaks down the basics and provides some alternatives in regards to treatment that usually gets tended to in hospital settings. I say nice addition because it's by no means a definitive guide. There are some topics that you will need to look into further to be better prepared for emergency situations.
This includes but isn't limited to alternative treatments. While some medicines are mentioned, not all are within reach for the average person. Not only that, but there may be a situation where recommended medicines can't be administered due to a known allergy. In addition to this, the patient could be on a treatment plan and the medicine they're taking as part of that treatment can't be mixed with any other medicines.
Even with all that said, it's still a nice book that needs to be paired with other books to ensure all bases are covered. I would recommend this book to others as it's several essential books in one.
