Essentials of First Aid for Nursing, 2/E for BSc and GNM Nursing Students | As per Revised INC Syllabus | First Aid Procedures, Emergency Care, CPR, Bites and Stings, Poisoning and Disaster Care

Essentials of First Aid for Nursing is a student-friendly textbook that covers first aid for nursing students at graduate level, written as per the revised INC syllabus. It presents each emergency in a clear, examination-oriented format so you can learn what to recognise and what to do, step by step. Structured across 34 chapters in four parts, it moves from the principles and concepts of first aid (dressings, bandages, medication) through common emergencies to procedures and protocols. Topics include minor and soft-tissue injuries, spinal injuries, fainting, hypoglycaemia, bites and stings (snake bite, scorpion sting, dog bite, jellyfish sting), poisoning, drowning and frostbite; cardiovascular emergencies such as bleeding and haemorrhage, shock, stroke, heart attack and angina; respiratory emergencies including choking and asthma; and a community emergencies section on fire, flood, famine, earthquake, gas leakage and COVID-19 measures. The procedures and protocols part covers disaster management and basic cardiopulmonary resuscitation aligned to American Heart Association guidance, with the ABC to CAB sequence, rescue breaths and the automated external defibrillator. Every chapter ends with 'assess yourself' questions for university examination preparation. Who This Book Is For: BSc Nursing students: for the first aid component of the revised INC curriculum and for clinical and emergency-care preparation. GNM students: as a concise first aid and emergency nursing text mapped to the INC syllabus, with end-of-chapter questions for internal and university exams.
