This second edition is fully updated and revised.
Whether you are a walker, paraglider, orienteer, climber, horse rider, mountain biker, wild swimmer, paddler or fell runner, all outdoor activities carry inherent risks and dangers.
In an urban setting we rely on ambulance crews, paramedics, doctors and nurses to provide assistance and medical care when things go wrong. However, once you are in an outdoor location away from immediate help you need a different approach.
Evacuation may be necessary. You might have to administer first aid in awkward, even dangerous places. Limited resources mean that you have to be able adapt and improvise.
This book is geared specifically towards first aid in the UK remote outdoor setting.
