First Aid for New Parents Jeffrey S Imel

Your smart device plus this book equals a first aid course course in your hands. First Aid for New Parents helps eliminate the guesswork when attempting to decipher an infant's cries, coughs, breathing and appearance when an infant is ill. As infants grow and become more mobile, the potential for an accidental injury rises and parents need to prepare themselves to treat life threatening injuries and illnesses while they wait on EMS to arrive. I read and researched textbooks from the major first responder medical training schools and consolidated thousands of pages of text into intuitive, easy-to-use flow diagrams that graphically illustrate first aid treatment and care. You will learn how to: ?Decipher infants coughs and unusual breathing sounds.
