Little Book of Red Flags Recognising the Symptoms of Serious Illness [Clinician Edition]

An ability to recognise symptoms of serious illness is essential for all front-line professionals in health care. Face to face clinical assessments are currently a precious resource carrying risk of infection for the patient and the clinician. The Little Book of Red Flags is a practical handbook to help early diagnosis of life-threatening conditions. The authors, Dr Ian Hill-Smith MD MRCP FRCGP and Dr Gina Johnson MB BS MSc MRCGP are highly experienced GP's who run accredited diploma courses in urgent care and are co-authors, along with their colleague Dr Chirag Bakhai, of the best-selling Minor Illness Manual, now in its 5th edition. "A very useful reference - easy to navigate and very clear guidance. I like that is it just amber/red flag info, rather than also providing treatment options... this format makes for a concise guide that would be easy to use in a busy pharmacy." - Sonal Mehta CCG Pharmacist & Self Care Lead
