text: Let’s talk about medical for a minute. I know folks are going into overdrive for ammo and shelf stable food, but what are you doing for medical? I am a huge proponent of a lot of home remedies and alternative medicine. Many herbs and plants have medicinal value attached to them. Just like there’s multiple ways to skin a cat, there are multiple ways to treat an infection. If you can’t suture, it’s a worthwhile skill to have. It doesn’t take hardly any time to learn, and it could pay off exponentially for you in the end times. Stopping the bleeding and keeping them breathing is only the first steps of care, what about extended care? Patient comfort? Advanced adjuncts? Unfortunately, modern equipment is expensive. But just like equipment’s original upbringings, all it takes is a working knowledge of how the modern stuff operates, and a little bit of outside the box thinking. Everything from chest tubes, to pelvic splints, to crics can be replicated in a pinch.
