Издание на английском языке
Every day when you take care of a worrisome symptom, tend to a child’s wound, or administer emergency care, you are practicing first aid. This manual contains simple instructions and in some cases life-saving health-care techniques for you to study and refer to in order to take care of the most common nonserious illnesses and injuries. You’ll also learn how to identify signs and symptoms and how to understand the difference between a minor injury or illness and those that are more serious. When things do get serious, you’ll know how to respond so that you can help others until they can get professional medical care. Knowing what steps to take to prevent illness and injury prevention are just as important for your health and safety as caring for the resulting injury or illness; in fact, prevention should be your first step. That’s why this manual is packed with tips and suggestions to keep your home, work, and vacations safe.
