Home Doctor: Practical Medicine for Every Household

by Maybell Nieves, Rodrigo Alterio, Claude Davis

Inside this 304-pages physical book you will discover the DIY medical procedures and vital medical supplies you need to have on hand to take care of common health problems and emergencies at home, while waiting for an ambulance to arrive or in the next crisis when doctors and medicines may be hard to come by.

Dr. Maybell, one of the authors, is known for developing new, ingenious methods of treating her patients after Venezuela's economy collapsed and hospitals and pharmacies ran out of medicines, supplies, electricity and even running water.

The methods Maybell and other doctors in Venezuela invented and pioneered are now being studied and applied in conflict zones all over the world. Many of these inexpensive procedures do not require any medical assistance as they are specifically designed to be self-applied, so they should also help anyone cut down on medical costs while things are still OK.

But they become most valuable when the medical system cannot be depended on, like during long term blackouts, economic collapses, riots, hurricanes and other disasters. As you’ll discover these methods inside The Home Doctor you’ll probably start to realize why every household and family should keep them close-by.

The authors have done an excellent job of making medical knowledge accessible and practical for everyday use. I was particularly impressed with the sections on natural remedies and how to use household items in medical emergencies. This book has already helped me treat a few minor ailments and provided peace of mind knowing I can handle common health issues at home. It's written in a clear, concise manner that makes it easy to understand and apply the advice.
