Steve Lewis (Hailsham, E Sussex United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

This review is from: First Aid Manual: Was the Authorised Manual of St. John Ambulance, St. Andrew's Ambulance Association, and the British Red Cross (Paperback)

This is a comprehensive manual covering a wide range of subjects. It is well laid out book with easy to find sections. For families with children it is a must as it covers topics such as meningitis.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Official Text for First Aiders, 10 Mar 2004

Gerry "hospitaller" - See all my reviews

This review is from: First Aid Manual: Was the Authorised Manual of St. John Ambulance, St. Andrew's Ambulance Association, and the British Red Cross (Paperback)

This is the official text for first aiders in the UK. It is quite well laid out, with plenty of graphic (but not gory!) illustrations of interventions and is easy-to-understand. As a Registered First Aid Instructor/Examiner I find the previous edition to have been better. For starters it was clearer on the management of the unconscious spinally injured casualty, whereas a bit of exegesis is required with this text to arrive at pretty much the same conclusion as the 7th edition (but just more subtly put - a purposefully grey area perhaps?). There are other flaws. Some of the graphics don't correlate with best practice, and the same can be said about the text in places. However, this is no fault of the book itself, which is a must-have for First Aiders as it reflects the official line on approaches and interventions. Flawed yet indispensable, with plenty of food for critical thought!
