This is an amazing book.. Where There is no Doctor to teach basic health and healthcare to rural areas that may not have access to a primary physician ..

Okay Back to the FREE download.. The Hesperian Foundation Publishers of this book want to make sure that the valuable information in this book is able to be used by people from all over the world.. All walks of life.. All income levels.. and to accomplish that goal they have made this book available for FREE download from their website..

Where There is No Doctor is the most widely used health education book in tropical and sub-tropical developing countries. Based on David Werner‘s experiences at his Project Piaxtla in western Mexico, it was originally written in Spanish as Donde No Hay Doctor. It has since been revised and has sold over one million copies and been translated into over 100 languages. It is available for free as a PDF from the publisher. It covers all aspects of people’s health ranging from diarrhea to malaria and bone fractures and ringworm. Special emphasis is placed on hygiene, a healthy diet and vaccinations, and the book explains to readers what they can do themselves and how to prevent, recognize and treat many common sicknesses. It also shows them how to recognize problems they are unable to cope with and need to refer to a health worker. This new revised edition includes information about some additional health problems such as AIDS, dengue fever, complications from abortion, drug addiction and covers in detail both childbirth and family planning.

Its distribution is worldwide. The US Peace Corps has distributed it in The Gambia. In the British Medical Journal a review said:

Chances are that if you visited a remote district hospital in a developing country you would find a well thumbed copy of Where There Is No Doctor in its library. The book is intended primarily for village health workers, but generations of doctors and medical missionaries who have worked in under-resourced communities globally will vouch for its value in providing concise reliable information.

      Most people have realized they need more than just the Oregon CHL. We now teach the Oregon, Utah and Arizona all in one class. You can still get the Oregon only if you wish but you will be sitting through and entire 4 hour class.

      This class meets the minimum Oregon CHL training requirements and covers these topics:

      Basic Handgun Safety
      Oregon laws on weapons and deadly force
      Self-defense principles and defensive mindset
      Concealed carry equipment and techniques
      You are NOT to bring any firearms, ammunition, or recording devices of any kind.

      Applying for the CHL:

      You will receive a course completion certificate, which will have my instructor information and signature on it. You will then need to take a copy of the certificate to your local sheriff’s office. Application for the Oregon CHL must be done in person at your local sheriff’s office.
