Dr Dorothy Shepherd offers a guide to the medicinal treatment of first aid. For years she followed obediently the recognised, well-troden paths of antiseptic & aseptic wound treatment, with little or no medicinal aid, other than those already mentioned. She then had the opportunity to study & apply first-aid methods in surgical outpatients, private practice & a munition factory in the First World War & the later a minor ailment clinic. She gave up entirely the old methods & with the help of a devoted staff applied these comparatively new homoeopathic ideas which have proved successful.
