Customer Reviews: Read 11 more reviews... Good resource November 5, 2008ER NP (Omaha, NE) This is a good resource. Provides good information on many topics, and provides specific information. Just what you've been looking for. October 24, 2008Tsoko's Dad (Albuquerque, NM USA) Just as the introduction promises, full of just what you wanted to know about all the things that are too simple to be taught in medical school or on your ER rotation, but that you nevertheless weren't born knowing. As a recent graduate from Family Medicine residency, I keep this with me anywhere I'm seeing patients. This book came recommended to me, so I didn't shop around much, but I can't imagine a better urgent care reference. It also has most of what you need for office procedures, though still doesn't replace "procedures for primary care" by pfenninger and Fowler. Urgent Care Centers/Emergency Departments should not be without! August 6, 2008h. (Florida) This book should be stocked in Emergency Departments/Urgent Care Centers as a necessary piece of equipment. Great for nurses!!! Remote Medical Resource June 10, 2008Sandy Fraser (Globetrotting) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful Minor Emergences is making the rounds as the resource to have in the remote field. I'm a medic that works in isolated camps or offshore vessels with the closest MD available only via phone or email. Sometimes evacuating a patient to a higher level of care is not an easy thing to do or even a possibility. Being able to take care of minor problems and recognizing when you cannot is always a consideration. While no book or manual could possibly take the place of adequate training it sure is nice to have such a wealth of knowledge close at hand. Minor Emergencies - Splinters to Fractures is more than worth having to pack its weight around and has a permanent place in my very limited traveling library. Sandy Fraser Remote Medic A lifesaver in urgent care January 15, 2008A Reader (Near the Beach USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful I used the first edition of this book while working in a busy urgent care center. As a point of care reference, it is a true godsend. The information is based on the authors' real-world experience and presented in a straight forward manner. The reader is not overwhelmed with detail. The clear, informative illustrations greatly enhanced the utility of this text. As a student rotating through the ED, on more than one occasion I impressed my clinical instructors with knowledge gained through this book. | |||||||||||
