Relate Well...React Less! All young people have an innate need to feel Safe, Significant, Respected and Related! In Better Behavior- Positively!, authors White-McMahon and Baker introduce an innovative model of care known as the NeuroRelational Framework that harnesses the power of relationships and brain-based supports to promote healthy transformation. They explore how supportive intervention need not be complex nor require significant amounts of training to be effective. Unique to this comprehensive framework are a set of innovative, trauma-informed approaches that offer tremendous hope to behaviorally challenged young people. The book provides, clear, concise information grounded in research that demonstrates how brain development is impacted by experience and provides practical strategies of support that can be used by any caring adult. The authors explore the connection of how behavior develops into a way of responding to the people and environments within their life.

Since the first use of basic life support (BLS) and defibrillation in the pre-hospital setting in Belfast in 1966, few would argue that there have been major improvements in the rate of survival for out-of-hospital cardiac arrests. Indeed, until the widespread introduction of BLS and defibrillators to emergency medical service (EMS) vehicles, an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest would mean certain death. The initial rhythm of a patient in cardiac arrest is predictive of their chances of survival. In this regard, the rhythms with the highest rate of survival to hospital discharge are ventricular fibrillation (VF) and ventricular tachycardia (VT). As VF is a more common presenting rhythm in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and much of our knowledge of VF is relevant to VT, this book focuses primarily on VF cardiac arrest.
