The book "Emergency Care and Transportation of the Sick and Injured" by the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) is a First Aid book specifically designed for students in traditional schools, as well as online students.

The importance of prehospital care in the final outcome of all patients in serious and urgent conditions has been well recognized in recent years, and all advanced countries have imposed rules based on official scientific studies. It is widely accepted that the Prehospital Emergency Medical System in the United States is of the highest level, as are all areas of the healthcare system. The scientific validity of each action is a prerequisite for every professional in the field, who is governed by a strict legislative framework for the defense of the ultimate good of citizens' health and easily leads to compensation. Impulsiveness, ignorance, and disorganization have no place and are costly. Thus, offering First Aid without the fear of being accused of causing harm instead of benefiting requires studying and certification as a rescuer. This book has been widely accepted in the United States and is aimed at both healthcare professionals and citizens who wish to be trained in First Aid and Basic Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation. It is a supplement to a program that leads to certified rescuer licensing. The participation of a significant percentage of medical students in the program proves its quality and excellence.
