It is also the only book to cover training in the use of the Seaberg SAM Splint. Wayne Gill has over 20 years experience in first aid; and for over a decade, he has been a First Aid instructor.

Charles S. B. Galasko, Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery and Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon, Chairman, Intercollegiate Academic Board for Sports and Exercise Medicine.
