      The information in this book is meant to supplement, not replace, proper emergency medical training. Like any emergency response involving speed, equipment, skills and environmental factors, operating as an emergency responder poses some inherent risk. The authors and publisher advise readers to take full responsibility for their safety and know their limits.
