Publisher's summary

Know how to take care of yourself and your loved ones when disaster strikes with these essential survival skills!

Ask yourself:

  • Can you foresee when the next disaster will be?
  • Do you know what to do if a medical professional isn’t available?
  • Are you equipped to survive the unpredictable situations in life?

It’s incredible how far modern medicine and technology have come. You can Google "how-to" for almost anything, find quick solutions, and help is just a phone call away. If you are in a well-functioning city, it is all readily available to you, anytime.

But, if you're out hiking or camping in the wilderness…cut off from bustling urban amenities with no phone signal or ways to get help…and you are faced with an injury in the best case scenario, or worse, with a life-threatening accident...well, then you are on your own - and whatever you do must suffice for as long as your survival predicament lasts. Luckily, nature has your back!

Any survivalist knows that the best medicine for any type of injury is preparedness. You no longer have to freeze in the face of danger. Everything you need for a DIY splint, pain relief, and assuring your long term survival can be found in the great outdoors.

Discover what goes in a natural first aid kit, how to stop bleeding using a simple stick hack, and the key principles of first aid in the wilderness. Survival skills give you the necessary knowledge to keep yourself and those around you healthy and alive.

In Practical Survival Skills, here is just a fraction of what you will discover:

  • An essential handbook to protect you, your family, and others when help is not available right away...or at all
  • Practical first-aid skills and crucial knowledge of nature’s remedies that could one day mean the difference between life or death
  • Illustrated steps for you to assess injuries, administer first-aid, and use resources available in the wilderness
  • Seven common items you can use as improvised treatment for sprains, strains, and broken bones - no special equipment or preparation needed
  • How to do an evaluation of injuries in six steps - know the signs, symptoms, and treatment plan
  • A comprehensive list of survival medicine plants - discover nature’s aspirin, how to identify poisonous plants, and where to find a plaster in the woods
  • The ultimate instructional guide for you to be your own doctor in any survival situation

And, much more.

Even if you already know the basics of first aid, anyone can freeze when faced with stressful situations and unexpected events. Survival in an everyday urban environment requires very different skills than in the wilderness.

Practical Survival Skills is tailored to saving your life in austere environments and providing you with a survivalist mindset.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Superb!!

Excellent novel!! I haven't finished it yet, but I have begun reading it and browsed over several portions. It's ideal for a survival Situation. The antibiotic portion near the rear was a welcome sight. There's a lot of useful medical advice and information here.

An essential medical resource.

Good advice on emergency preparedness and medical basics. When things go wrong, it might be difficult to remember specifics from the trauma or survival class you did; this is a wonderful approach to make sure you have that knowledge immediately available.

Very handy book to have.

This is an excellent book written by a doctor who recognizes that the grid may be down for months, not just days or weeks. The majority of medical survival books focus on keeping a person stable long enough to bring them to the hospital. J. P. Logan does an excellent job of highlighting measures you can take now, while society continues to operate, as well as offering insight into what individuals can do to make the best of a bad circumstance. Loved it.
