First Aid Manual Revised 10th Edition – 2016 (St John Ambulance, British Red Cross, St Andrew’s First Aid)
Undoubtedly this book is a bible for volunteers in the UK’s three leading first aid charities (St John Ambulance, British Red Cross, St Andrew’s First Aid).
Live-action step-by-step photographs show you how to treat casualties and over 100 medical conditions and injuries, from minor burns to heart attacks. Find information on the latest life-saving procedures and resuscitation guidelines as well as basic first aid techniques, like bandaging and applying dressings. Plus, chapters explain what it’s like being a first aider, what to do in an emergency situation and how to look after a casualty. Keep it handy – for home, for work and for leisure.
The book is comprehensive, ranging from exotic animals (scorpion stings) to everyday problems such as cuts, grazes and bruises. It is aimed at the general public, so no prior knowledge is needed before picking up this book.
There are some excellent anatomy pages with good diagrams for those interested. In addition, there is lots of ‘extra’ information on how to be a first aider and managing situations. When buying, ensure you have the latest up-to-date version (currently 10th edition)
First Aid Made Easy – 2014 (Nigel Barraclough)
This book is aimed at those undertaking a First Aid at Work course in the UK. It is in a similar format to the book above, with clear step by step instructions and sections on anatomy & physiology. However, this book is significantly cheaper than the manual above.
First Aid Made Easy is a comprehensive full colour First Aid Manual, designed to complement any longer first aid course, and is approved for use with HSE First Aid at Work courses.
The large A4 page layout allows very clear, in-depth, yet easy to understand descriptions of many first aid theories.
Once again, another very good book aimed at members of the public as no prior knowledge is required.
First Aid FAST for Babies and Children (Dorling Kindersley)
Another excellent book from Dorling Kindersley.
From first aid essentials to life-saving procedures, the new edition of this manual, published in association with the British Red Cross, gives you the knowledge you need instantly if a baby or child falls ill or gets hurt.
User-friendly step-by-step instructions tell you how to treat babies and children for more than 100 medical conditions and injuries, from minor cuts and burns to meningitis and asthma attacks. First aid procedures are illustrated photographically to give clear, detailed guidance; plus they’re all colour-coded for quick reference when you are in a hurry!
This book has a very similar format to the general manual produced by DK (first listing in this post). The book tackles almost every conceivable first aid situation that you could encounter. In addition, there are some excellent pages on how to prevent accidents in the home. A worthwhile read, especially for new parents. More advanced first aiders may find this book to be a bit basic, and quite repetitive from the general manual.
Sick / Not Sick: A guide to rapid patient assessment. Second edition (AAOS)
This book is aimed at more advanced first aiders & first responders (such as those working for a voluntary organisation / private company). The book is based around the principle that an initial assessment of a casualty during the first minute or two should be used to determine whether the patient is sick (and therefore needs immediate treatment / assistance) or not sick (condition not immediately life threatening). The book uses scenarios which you can test yourself on.
Completely updated with new case studies throughout, Sick/Not Sick, Second Edition is designed to help EMS personnel develop rapid patient assessment skills. This resources distils years of field experience into a workable formula that both inexperienced and experienced providers can use. Sick/Not Sick teaches EMS personnel how to quickly collect information and discern what details are important in order to provide immediate initial care. After all, in EMS it comes down to whether the patient is SICK or NOT SICK.
This is certainly interesting reading for experienced first aiders and voluntary ambulance crew. The book really emphasises that initial decision in whether the patient is ‘sick’ and therefore needs more advanced medical care. Whilst this may be second nature to many experienced first aiders, the book does bring up several interesting examples and thought-provoking cases. However, the second edition has quite a hefty price tag attached to it. I’d recommend trying to find a second hand copy or picking up an old first edition (which is almost just as good).
