Fülszöveg

From swallowing a poisonous berry to spotting the first signs of meningitis, this guide to first aid and emergency treatment for children and young adults describes symptoms, causes and treatment. Its aim is to help anyone looking after children to avoid potentially dangerous situations, and to react with confidence when accidents and emergencies do happen. The book includes information on asthma, allergies, burns and scalds, drug abuse, and the ideal first-aid kit, and the "emergency" pages show how to keep a child safe until medical help arrives.
