Medical skills preparedness

naloxone training classes can now be done virtually.

Google : orp training (county) Md.

Allegany runs once each month.

Several others run weekly sessions.

Not sure how long a session runs.

And - many pain management practices issue narcan rx on the first visit and renew that each year, or sooner, if the dose was used.

hell in moco just go to any firehouse.. if you're a resident and ask for one, we give away narcan kits fl with no training for free now

The isopropyl alcohol thing actually is based in science lol

Huh ! Good to know .

I will ignore Doctors when I think they are wrong.

I know.

I’ve gotten that a lot over the past 2 years from many. Hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, vaccines that aren’t really vaccines. I’m an idiot. I’ve been wrong on all these issues…

MIEMSS told me to sniff alcohol pads whenever nauseous. Good to know since I was using narcan to help with carsickness.

Would that work with seasickness too? That would be a groundbreaking finding from here on MDS if it's true.

You’d probably need to be sniffing alcohol your whole trip if doing a cruise, but might help for a fishing trip. Here’s an article on some studies.

AED info

I know some basic first aid like chest compressions and the use of a tourniquet,etc.

 

[Alphabrew]

I carry this bleeding control kit in my truck, put a similar one in my wife’s car. Yes, I unwrapped the tourniquets. The extra tourniquet is one that I practice applying to myself.

Respond to many many medical emergencies. As James Yager says, ya know what hasn't went up in this panic, medical and trauma supplies.

Most "preppers" are VERY well prepared in one or two areas and dangerously underprepared in several other key areas.

There are other threads dedicated to this, but basic fitness, first aid, and wilderness survival skills are essential in a real "everyone for themselves" situation.

"basic fitness" always makes it into a prep thread. Lol
I have some medical shit I don't know how to use, but someone else might. Is that wrong?
"Wilderness survival" is at the bottom of the list if you live in a suburb.
Not everyone needs to know everything.

I've added Lifevac to my First aid kit. Over 1.4K folks have been saved from choking using this gadget. The company will replace it for free if you ever use it.
