Nate found a new water filtration trick re-discovered. Use a pine branch with the bark removed, it removes particulates, muck, and best yet bacteria including all E. coli. Video here with water test results, 'Newly Discovered PRIMITIVE WATER FILTER! 100% Effective'
Good Evening Nate. I Gave Your RU-vid Video A Huge Thumbs Up Ok Nate. Iam Still Praying For The Entire World Too Ok Nate. I Love ❤️ Watching All Of Your RU-vid Videos Too Nate. These Are Great SHTF Survival Tips Nate. We Are Really Living In The End Times Right Now Nate. We Are Really Living In Very Scary And Dan Times Right Now Nate. Keep Up The Great Work Nate And Thanks For This RU-vid Video Update.
I cut through an artery and two tendons in my wrist on a piece of broken glass. I knew I was surrounded by people who aren't great in emergencies, so I dropped, used my left hand, and clamped it creating a pressure tourniquet to the floor. Managed to wrap part of my shirt around it, and once I calmed down my wife got her to call 911. I would have bled out in 90 seconds, according to the surgeons who reattached it, and it took EMS about 10 minutes to get to me once called. I stayed conscious the entire time, or I wouldn't be here. If there's an emergency, I think the best survival tip, is to keep a cool head.
@@cynthiaaustin1763 Thanks, but, after driving myself to a clinic with a collapsed lung once, and extracting myself to climb a 100ft cliff after my truck brakes went out, down it went, no cell coverage to get help for my passenger who cracked his sternum, it was a semi-natural progression. I seem to be accident-prone. 🤣 I worked security in ER rooms as my first job 30 years ago, probably what helps me keep a level head in a bad situation. Martial arts also didn't hurt.
Absolutely worth it since it's free. Best bets are to get a CAT (combat application torniquet), QuikClot Gauze, Israeli Bandages (4 inches or wider) and Chest Vent Seals. Basically provides full bleeding coverage.
I took a CERT class at a local fire department. It stands for Civil Emergency Response Team & was set up after 9/11. They teach first aid, triage, fire management, search & rescue, command & control, and all types of helpful information. You’re then put on a team that can be activated in your area in case of an emergency. It’s basically everything a prepper would want to know, & it puts you in touch with people who are also trained. I highly recommend it.
They do CERT classes at my job every year and I sign up every time. They do it all hands-on here and it's definitely worth the time. I get a double-whammy since they pay me for taking it. =D
Took a CERT class in 2021, it was mostly online. I don't recommend the online version. It was off putting how extremely concerned they were with "political correctness" (Ptld, OR). It's an emergency situation, you just "do", or you put others at risk, and probably die. I need to try again with an in-person course of some sort.
@@5dragonflies1 the one I did was in person through a fire station. A volunteer through AmeriCorps was the organizer. It was really professional & organized. They even gave us badges & supplies at the end of training.
Debridement. That word triggers me PTSD. I was fragged in 1990 in numerous places the worst one was millimeters away from C3 and 5cm deep. Every single day for 3 months they packed and repacked that wound with fresh guaze to make it heal from the bottom up. Debrided every day. These days they have better methods.
Nate thank you for doing a second video with the doctor. THOSE OF US THAT REALLY APPRECIATE YOU, KNOWING THE VALUABLE TIME YOU TAKE OUT OF YOUR LIFE TO GIVE US THE KNOWLEDGE WE NEED... IGNORE THE IGNORANT TROLLS! Keep up the great work 👍 Please stay safe and keep your family safe too ❤
I would definately throw in some foot spray or powder. I remember when i was on a bug out trip, the number one problems were bad feet related, ie Athletes foot or any situation/condition. You can be the fittest guy on your team and be floored with bad feet.. Keep Prepping, Keep Doing People..Stay Safe!
Some people just have more moist feet than others. I change my socks 3 times a day. It's worth it for me because I don't want to get athletes foot leading to infection which I had once when I was a young kid. Doctor told me "I see you got a back pack there....put a couple extra pairs of socks in it and change them regularly through the day" I have been doing that for 18 years now and never got athletes foot ever again. Also cotton socks and in winter I'll wear wool in extreme cold and snow but I have to be mindful of it and make sure not to let them suckers over stay their welcome in my boots. Not a fan of these polyester blends that have infested the sock market. Cotton always worked best for me. Only downside of it all is that I have two draws for socks filled to the brim and a little extra laundry duty.
Some old reconstruction ancient village projects that health tracked volunteer residents ... trench foot became main issue that ended project .... when mortality was far worse n 50 seemed old age to die ....many many of those people died " lame" from foot rot ....
These are nice teaser videos to remind us that learning emergency medical skills and knowledge should be an ongoing commitment for all serious preppers (or any responsible adults). If I were King... It would be a core requirement in high school curriculum.
Saline pods, zinc based ointment, needle and thread/fishing line, lighter, clean cut up old cotton cloths in zip lock bags, a quality stainless steel multi tool and an old leather belt (tourniquet) should help you out in so many situations too.
Ever try to stop a bad hemorrhage with a leather belt? Not easy/not necessarily quickly productive. Everyone should have one/preferably 2 windlass tourniquets. North American Rescue is my go-to to purchase them. In case you wonder, I’ve had to use tourniquets to prevent people from hemorrhaging to death hence I’m not talking out my posterior.
Hey, some good recommendations there. You should probably check out my medical myths video this week before choosing a leather belt (more than 90% failure rates for massive hemorrhage)
@@SurvivalDoctors My suggestion was of using the belt for snakebite rather than to stop bleeding. I live on a farm where the only snakes that inhabit the area are highly toxic to deadly. I understand using bandages for snakebite and dont discredit their effectiveness. Problem is, if you are alone on your property, get bit you have to self apply bite first aid and still be physically mobile to ride or drive to help. A belt is more often worn than carried, so might be overlooked as a makeshift tool. I am not a medical professional, but i have seen three snakebites. I carry bandages, first aid and wear a belt but its the hospitals antivenom that saves lives. Take care : )
If you want a belt to use as a tourniquet, look up “Parabelt” since it’s both a belt and ratcheting tourniquet. A little pricey however so is life insurance. I’ve worn them for years. I can’t supply a link however should be relatively easy to locate online.
cayenne stops bleeding, tincture is best but powder is easier to carry. plantain grows everywhere and put it on any wounds and it will pull out all disease/infection.
FYI, whatever remedies you create for bleeding, these are for MINOR bleeding and even with minor bleeding, pressure would oftentimes be more effective :)
@@SurvivalDoctors I wouldn't substitute pressure for cayenne, I'd do both. Dr. Richard Schulze said he gave cayenne to someone with a gunshot wound one time and it stopped the bleeding. I don't recall what size caliber of bullet he said or even if he did but when I watch gunsmoke and they remove a bullet I'm always thinking 'take some hot peppers'
I had some guys put a metal roof on our deck last week. The last sheet of metal on the edge slid sideways and off into the forehead of one of the guys on a ladder. It cut like a razor blade about 2 inches long. It bled pretty badly all over the front of him and I thought he should have stitches. The neighbor who is a Syrian refugee ran over when he heard about this accident with a jar of Turkish expresso granules. He took rubbing alcohol and swabbed it twice then he sprinkled generously with this coffee and you know what that cut stopped the moment the coffee hit the cut. We couldn't believe our eyes it was amazing then wrapped his head with a clothe. He was in the Syrian army and that's what they used out in the field. I had never heard of that before.
I appreciate it Nate. Thanks for getting me motivated for actually studying this and not just buying gear. It’s important to actually practice this stuff before you need this stuff. Good stuff Nate.
Know what you are doing even common store spice and food can be helpful, raw honey is a great antimicrobial both inside and outside in spite of it having sugar, oregano, rosemary and thyme too.
*Our congress has no idea how we Americans are feeling, we individuals are fed up with this treasonous administration.I feel for people with disabilities for not getting the help they deserve...Thank you Kristy Loreca..imagine l invested $1,000 and received $7,900 in 4days.*
Let's face it... Buying more stocks & index funds during stock markets are scary Which makes it really hard to do for mostly people like me. I have 260k want to transfer into an s&s isa but it's hard to bite the bullet and do it.
I'm also one of the beneficiaries of Kristy Loreca . Relying upon this administration is nothing but a total waste of time. So happy I gave it a trial after being skeptical of the process.
I learned quite a few new things from this video. You Dr. Tan is great at giving "GOOD" info. I have been using 50% food grade Aleo vera gel and 50% Colloid Silver mix on "Burns" . It works just keep putting it on until the burning "STOPS". After 30 years in Alaska that is all I use. Many years ago there was a company that sold it but they have been out of business for over 25 years. Thanks Gman
Thank goodness my youngest daughter is a trauma nurse. The next, who is 37, just graduated paramedic/first responder and has field medic training from her years in the Army. I also bought a surgical kit and large medical kit.
I got flogged by my rooster. It was a two 🕝 inch puncture in my knee. It cut into a tendon. Serious infection risk. Pain was incredible. I'm still recovering. Glad I had sense enough to treat it myself.
Nothing beats practice. Thinking you know what you're doing and never having done it before can really throw you for a loop. I've had moments hiking where I've slipped on some scree and taken a helluva tumble. Lot of scrapes, bruising and one long gash on my arm where I snagged a sharper outcrop. Never had any experience treating wounds at all and made a royal muddle of it. After, I promptly went down to my local fire department and asked if they had any first aid courses and signed up for one. Haven't had to use the knowledge since then, but I do stop by for the course every few years as a refresher. Good to stay in practice.
Squad or Platoon leader will Call for MedEVac . The unit medic will stabilize you. Do Not run around in the dark. Work as a team. Train now before SHTF. All those products are important to have.
Have the doc chose the best possible medical 🏥 kit stuff for the SHTF scenario and have him put it together in your kit and we’ll buy those premade kits!!!!
This is excellent info. I’m actually really glad to hear him teach what I teach, he being an ER doc, and me being a medic. Everyone wants to Rambo up and start stitching stuff. REALLY good way to seal in a quality infection. In EMS we are always taught BLS (Basic Life Support) over ALS (Advanced Life Support). I was the typical Red Dawn/First Blood survivalist for probably the first 15 years of my prepping life from 20-35 (1990-2005). With Katrina, and a few other situations happening, I realized that, although, at the time, I could arm my neighborhood, my medical skills were seriously lacking. So I started to read a lot more medical books, etc. With the down turn of the economy in 08’ I thought…”business isn’t going as good, I’ve always been interested in EMS stuff, why not? So I took an EMT 1 class. Loved it. Was one of the highest scoring students in class 98%. My instructor told me I should go for my medic. So I did. You wanna talk about stressful…but it was by far the most fun I ever had being that stressed out 😅. I had 3 of my instructors who were preppers. So once you mentioned that…that opened up a whole other discussion after class. My clinicals put me in contact with a lot of Drs and surgeons, anesthesiologists, Nurses, etc. The stuff I learned through them was just ridiculous, especially in my surgical rotations. This started me down the road of ‘which antibiotics and when and why’, as well as how to properly irrigate a wound, and when and how to stitch it up properly (as a disclaimer, none of those are medic skills, it’s things I’ve picked up in my training with ER Docs in my career). When I started my internship (field work) I still had access to these people, and if I brought a pt in, and could have done something better, they’d show me. A lot of medics are ex-military, some were corpsman, and they showed me some pretty awesome tricks. I’ve been a medic for over 12 years with a combined 13 years total in EMS. I’m in my 50’s. Point is, you’re never too old to learn. My EMT class was almost free. I think I paid $80 for my book,which I found out later I could have got for free. I think they run around $1k-ish now. That class alone will give you far more to work with than any other First Aid class. Don’t get me wrong. I teach AHA Heart Saver First Aid, BLS 4 HCP, ACLS, PALS. A run of the mill first aid class will give you good skills. And EMT class will put valuable knowledge with those skills. If you can’t afford Medic school, I’d suggest finding an advanced class, like what I teach, and if that’s not available, I’d watch the Dr Bonez and Nurse Amy videos on RU-vid. Definitely go over the info with the knowledge you’ve been taught to get the most out of the when and why you do things. Great video Nate.
nate,keep up the good work on the homestead,we are working on gardening,farming every day also,i often think of you and the family,tell the kids i am proud of them learning from Dad on the camping ect,prayers and good vibes from florids
I give myself a tetanus shot every 3 years. It also helps against spider bites. Living in Africa I get bitten by spiders quite regularly. I currently have 3 bites on my body
That was extremely helpful! Looking forward to watching Part 2. I watch you every morning before I start my day. I've learned so so much from you over the years! Thank you for your perseverence while you are building your bug out location. I would pray that you have the best of luck and you stay UNinjured in the process. I also pray for your family. God speed.
MEDICAL SUPPLIES & FIRST AID TRAINING are absolutely vital - even in "day to day" situations. We have had several "accidents" with hand tools, which COULD have been serious - had we NOT been prepared with first aid supplies and the knowledge to use them.
Lol KEEP A COOL HEAD. I sliced through my wrist with a chainsaw when i was 16, building a cabin on the top of a mountain with no vehicle. It was 3-4 hours before I got to the er. I kept a cool head, immediately removed my shirt and used that as a bandage to stop the bleeding and sat down to slow my heart. My boss FREAKED OUT. Made me remove my bandage so he could see it, BAD IDEA. You not only have to calm yourself, you have to calm those around you. I've been through several of those type situations, I have yet to experience anybody staying calm. It's almost impossible for most people, so make sure you prepare yourself to deal with others freaking out in addition to any injuries present.
Mr. Nate, i just wanna say thanks for this informative videos. I have books about first aid, but for me it's still better seeing/hearing this things in action
That's because he doesn't know how to take criticism like the rest of us do LOL. He takes it hard, like a dick. SMH. This dude apparently doesn't like censorship but yet he took down someone else's comments and they were just voicing their opinion. Isn't that censorship as well? The Canadian prepper left his comment on how Dingo was being negative and I saw Dingo's reply and within a matter of seconds his reply was taken down. Now that's what you call censorship! For the past 2 years the Canadian prepper has been telling people that the world is going to end in 24 hours and then a couple days later he says that the world's going to end in 48 hours and then 72 hours and so on and so forth. I don't think he actually gets his Intel from "top agents" in the government like he claims he does...
I think Mr Dingo hit an extremely fragile nerve of the Canadian. The way I see it is if someone calls me names or if they think of me in some way that is not true and I know it's not true then I would never let it get to me. The Canadian prepper has definitely let it get to him
Someone commented that this info in a video game format would be great and i agree. Nate if you read this it would be s great idea to help train kids whos parents are still super busy trying to pay bills.
The cleaning syringe that comes with the sawyer mini would also work great for irrigation, many of us already have one if not more of these on hand but actually CARRY it for both purposes.
Even if it isn't SHTF, having knowledge of first aid and emergency medicine can still be incredibly valuable. Disasters can come in large, small and individual "bite size" helpings. Great episode!
In my area there are Wilderness EMT courses you can take. They are super intense and take a month in a wilderness location. If you have a group, you could send one member to take it. Highly recommended. You learn some of the more advanced paramedic skills like IV installation, stitching, pneumothorax measures, search and rescue, mass casualty, communication, dealing with death. It is true SHTF training because you will learn wound treatment and other skills to keep people alive after the emergency is over. Lots of very realistic training scenarios where your patient "dies" because you f'd up. Keep the red stuff on the inside!
Everything happening is all God's plan. You can prep all you want all you can. But if you dont have true faith in Jesus. Its not going to be enough to save you. Having a real relationship and true faith in Jesus is the only preparation that will save you.
Messiah won’t come until there is universal repentance and prepping is essential. G-ds name means action literally I will be what I will be learn Hebrew to learn that means action
This is for those who believe in the still small voice of the Holy Spirit and for those who don’t believe it yet. While watering my garden this morning I heard in that still small voice “war is coming”. That is all I heard. God bless.
@@SurvivalDoctors thanks, i haven't tried suboxone yet, but it seems my doctor doesn't know anything, i've asked him about promethazine when it didn't work, but he simply doesn't know about it's boosting effect on other medications. He's not really a doctor imo because he never finished his study and getting back with a specialist seems impossible. I'll see what he has to say first, maybe he won't even let me go any lower.
Almost every community has free classes from local EMT and firehouses. Most local EMTs are willing to teach people how to do basics. Take advantage of it.
This is a great series, I am taking notes, and building a first aid kit (although I have 12 different types) learning simple things like use of iodine, syringes and soap etc.. is great education thank you 👍
I have raised 6 kids on a rural farm, in my experience if you keep a significant wound tightly wrapped it will get infected every blasted time! If you clean and disinfect and wrap it with something breathable, it usually heals quit nicely, just keep dirt and germs out if possible.
All he was trying to explain to you before you took down Dingo's comment was that you are being a hypocrite for saying that he's being negative when in reality you are the one who is also being negative by proclaiming yourself as a know it all and presume to believe you know how a "real" pepper should be
*Harvard Medical:* A recent paper published in the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases suggested that tetanus and diphtheria booster vaccines are *not* necessary for adults who have completed their childhood vaccination series. This advice aligns with the current World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations. The researchers reviewed WHO data from 31 North American and European countries between 2001 and 2016, amounting to 11 billion person-years. (Person-years is a measurement that reflects the number of people in the study multiplied by years followed). After comparing the incidence of tetanus and diphtheria, they found *no significant difference in disease rates in countries that require adults to receive booster shots compared with those that do not.* Based on this, the authors suggest that childhood vaccination alone protects sufficiently against tetanus and diphtheria without booster shots.
Not sure I'd trust that info as tetanus & diptheria are life threatening but only real way to test the theory exposes people. Did these victims live in 1st world countries with access to quality medical care & clean water to deal quickly w/ injuries? What is the death rate from Tetnus and/or diptheria in areas were med care & clean h20 aren't available?
Love this video and cant wait for part 2!!!....Nate could be possible that you can made a video listing all the elements you have in your first aid folding bag?, im quite interested on what you have inside and i want to have the same and i think im not the only one want who has the same doubt....thanks and stay safe...cheers from Chile!!
This show is excellent. I'm a retired rn. There wasn't much new but it's always great to have another's interpretation. Gives me more ideas on what to include in my emergency kit. Thanks Nate I look forward to part 2.
This was one if the most useful videos you've put out. Not only to have medical knowledge and the meds and tools for it when shft happens. But it's everyday life and can't even count how many times I've got cut or someone else when I've been to my property or camping. One example I personally have is that I cut into my hand with a Swiss Army knife when it slipped and didn't have bandages with but, my wife had a tampon in her purse and put that over my wound and worked great until I was able to get to urgent care for stitches which wad 40min away from where I was at. So keep these types of videos going.
@SurvivalDoctors like to see anything from stitching up wounds from binding a broken limb. What to do when someone choking or has seizures. To what we can use in the wild to treat wounds or medicinal uses. Thanks again looking forward to part 2 With Canadian Prepper
If that wound is getting super funky, you can actually make a very low concentration bleach solution and use that to disinfect the area. 25 years as a critical care/trauma/ flight nurse here.
