For Rescue Bods - JRCALC Guidelines Online

[Jim Lamb]

For those of you with an Interest in the Medical side of Motor Sport Rescue/Pre-Hospital Care the Guidelines that are followed by Our Ambulance Service colleagues are now available on-line.

This is a substantial 450+ page, pdf document. ideal for those with Insomnia!!!

Ther are particular sections of Interest on Incident Management, Head, Spinal & Limb Trauma. Much of it is written from an RTA perspective.

The URL is http://www.nelh-ec.warwick.ac.uk/JRC...es_v3_2004.pdf

I doubt many surprises to established Operators but they are a good base line to start from for Training or reference purposes.

Yep thanks Jim don't think my printer will take all of this in one go though.
Am I alone in finding reading documents like this on a computer difficult. Both on the eyes and actually taking the informtion in?

[Jim Lamb]

Documents of this type are notoriously tedious to read and consume. Sections invariably end up being reproduced as chapters in other Publications. I have read that the document as a whole is about to be published by the IHCD and also in Pocket Book format
Unfortunately these publications don't come free!

I tend to 'cherry pick' the Interesting looking sections and print them off. If you can print them 2 pages to a sheet of A4 that'll save you paper.

I went blind years ago, so I have to wear glasses for PC work!

Happy reading.
