Emergency Care and First Aid for Nurses: A Practical Guide

by Philip Jevon RGN BSc(Hons) PGCE

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.

This manual didn't contain any information that I did not already know from my previous studies and nursing. However, it was useful as revision. It was simply written with good illustrations and had been well researched. The final chapter on legal aspects was particularly enlightening!
Having been published in 2007 it could probably be doing with updating in some areas but much of the basic first aid remains timeless.
