These practice guidelines are the official statement of the Wilderness Medical Society on the best methodology for handling prehospital care for illness and injury occurring in wilderness areas.
This is not a textbook; plenty of those are available. However, if you already know something about emergency medicine or EMS - you're a doctor, nurse, CRNP, PA, or R.N. with emergency experience, or an EMT or a paramedic - this is the definitive guide to how to modify your practice when in the wilderness/disaster/tactical setting. For that use, it is highly recommended.
