Clinical procedures are vital to delivering safe and effective patient care within the prehospital setting, but it is not always easy remembering each step accurately during a time-critical situation."This textbook can be used by a wider audience than just Ambulance staff... it is a very useful resource for anyone engaged in patient assessment and use of the attendant clinical skills in the pre-hospital environment. I feel this textbook will appeal to members of all arms of Search and Rescue Organisations, Police Firearms Medics, Fire Service Medics, etc. as well. I found this an easy book to navigate and one that I look forward to seeing on the shelves."David Whitmore QAM - Paramedic, Search and RescuePacked with over 75 clinical procedures, this book is the go-to guide to familiarise yourself with the correct sequence and techniques for a range of different skills.
