I'm in for that class as well.
The book I posted is a summary of what was in the class. Some of it makes a lot more sense if you had the class, i.e. the PAS, patient assessment system.
That's is a method of initial contact and information gathering designed to be handed to an EMT after they arrive. Again, it is designed around the idea of being in a remote wilderness where you would do things that you normally would wait for someone qualified, but no one is around.
In general learning first aid from a book is a lot like learning karate. Remember the karate kid when Mr Miyagi walk in on Daniel doing kicks in front a book and said "You learn karate from book?"
What he wanted to say is "He who learn karate from book, meet nice nurse some day"
