Although our Wilderness Medical Systems first aid kits ( Kilimanjaro, Absorkee, Humbug II, Denali, or Grasshopper) are comprehensive, they aren't much good if you don't know how to use them. Even if you've had first aid training (maybe years ago), it's quite likely you don't know or have forgotten how to treat many wilderness first aid emergencies.

This component in our Wilderness Medical Systems Kits deals with that.
WMS FLASHCARDS are first aid instructions written for the panicked layman by our medical director, Dr. Gilbert Preston, M.D.

WMS FLASHCARDS are designed to provide a highly stressed lay person with a rapid reference, and clear instructions on safe and effective care of the most common wilderness medical emergencies.

The "FLASH INDEX" on the outside back cover of the booklet quickly gets you to the correct treatment section. The instructions then concisely walk you through the treatment.

WMS FLASHCARDS are light, durable and comprehensive. The twin-spiral bound, 82 page, 4" X 5" booklet is printed on waterproof and tear-resistant plastic pages. They are designed to be used outside in the sleet or in the intense humidity of a 4 week trip through a tropical rainforest without coming apart.
