Comprehensive Medical and Environmental DVD Gets Specific
Have you ever had a request for more detailed first aid training for heart attacks, strokes, or allergic reactions? Do you train in areas where workers are at a higher-than-normal risk for hypothermia, snake bites, or other specific types of medical emergencies, such as heat stroke or poisoning? With MEDIC FIRST AID's new Medical and Environmental Emergencies DVD, you'll have no problem meeting those requests.
Covering 10 specific first aid topics on one convenient disk, the new Medical and Environmental Emergencies DVD easily integrates into the MEDIC FIRST AID Basic, Emergency Care, and Pediatric Training Programs. Each video segment can also stand alone for use in a safety meeting or for ongoing refresher training.
Instructors have the option of selecting topics specific to their needs. For example, clients in cold weather locations might benefit from the Exposure to Cold video segment, which details basic treatment options for hypothermia and frostbite, while clients in warmer climates might benefit from the Responding to Bites and Stings video segment.
The videos run between six and 10 minutes, and contain real-time scenarios or multiple-topic vignettes set in numerous industrial, office, and site-specific outdoor locations.
The Medical and Environmental Emergencies DVD also contains the slightly longer segments Introduction to Emergencies, and Physical Assessment and Patient History.
