Baby and Child Emergency First Aid Handbook

This first-aid handbook is the first thing you should reach for when your child has an emergency -- when every second counts. Here's why:

It is designed to help people with limited training in emergency medical procedures -- parents, babysitters, grandparents, and child-care providers -- deal quickly and easily with 34 of the most common childhood emergencies.

The quick-reference index is highlighted on both covers so you can find the information you need in seconds.

The large pages feature numbered step-by-step instructions with large, easy-to-read type.

The illustrations are big, clear, and make the instructions immediately understandable.

The up-to-date medical information tells you what you need to know about each emergency, what to check, when to get professional help, and what not to do.

The washable hardcover binding lays flat for easy reference and will last for years.
