DISCLAIMER
First, a disclaimer: This document in no way recommends doing
any more than recommended by the American Red Cross, or any other
organization which simply give guidelines as to how to assist at
an emergency situation to keep the victim(s) from further harm until
qualified medical personnel arrives on the scene. Before reading
this booklet, it is recommended to go to your local Red Cross and
take an emergency first aid course from them. They offer the type
of hands-on practical techniques necessary to best assist you to
be the most effective help, should you encounter an emergency situation.
The purpose of this booklet is to add only the most basic principles
of Homeopathy to your understanding of what will be in the best
interests of anyone you may encounter who is suffering from an unexpected
medical emergency..
I have only mentioned non life-threatening instances as these
can best and most easily be assisted by a total first aid novice

How to use this booklet
Before you ever encounter an emergency, create your kit.
Briefly read the alphabetical list of the suggested remedies on
the following pages. This will give you an idea of the scope of
the different remedies and their potential. You May best do this
before you actually come into an emergency situation. Then, assemble
your actual working first aid kit according to your needs. A suggested
kit with approximately 20 of the most common remedies is listed
on page 4. These tiny pills, tinctures (liquid solutions) and prepared
gels may be purchased from a reputable homeopathic supply source.
(See Sources and Resources page ). Not all of these remedies are
essential in every first aid kit. After reviewing the remedies and
their qualities, choose the ones you wish to purchase,and make your
kit personal,according to what you think your needs may be. Most
Homeopathic Supply houses offer single remedies. Purchase and compile
the kit you desire and then keep it handy.
