I have created the Self-Care Handbook for you as a resource of information and advice on common health care problems. The handbook is not meant to replace necessary medical procedures. However, it is designed to provide you with simple and effective instructions on medical assessment and care. If you have any questions regarding a health condition you may have, consult a medical professional immediately.
Special thanks to the following people for their time and effort:
N. Brooks Smith, M.D.
Marie Chew, N.P.
Rojean Dominguez, Health Educator
