Overview of the citizenAID Pocket Guide

The pocket guide consists of two sides, each covering different aspects of emergency response:

• Side 1: Preparation, identifying unattended items, knife attacks, active shooters, vehicle attacks, explosions, and treatment options.
• Side 2: Treatment procedures, including stopping bleeding, using tourniquets and the Tourni-Key, addressing thermal and acid burns, and handing over to emergency medical services.

Each section is colour-coded for easy navigation and comprehension.

Using the SLIDE Acronym

The guide also introduces the SLIDE acronym, which helps you remember the essential information to relay to emergency medical services.
