THE FLIP CHART
We have developed a Quick Reference First Aid Flip Chart for Barn and Trail. It is easy to use, compact
and you can hang it in the barn on a nail or put it in your saddle back for the trail.
The FLIP CHART grew out of our on-site Equine First Aid course that we offer at our Rescue facility. We wanted
something a horse owner could quickly reference in an emergency.
The FLIP CHART is handmade by Rescue volunteers and proceeds from its sale go toward feed and healthcare for
our rescued horses.
Topics include Vital Signs, Boosting Immunity, Shock, Snake Bite, Colic, Choke, Injuries, Allergic Reactions,
Poisoning, Heat Stroke, Hoof Abscesses, Bleeding. Also included are quick references to sedative/tranquilizers, and options
for pain control, suggestions for medications to have on hand, barn and trail first aid kits.
Both conventional and complementary applications are included: Bach Flower Remedies, homeopathy, acupressure
points for shock and colic, massage, herbs, essential oils and transfer factors and other colostrum based immunity boosters.
