Este libro, totalmente práctico, abarca todo tipo de cuestiones tratadas en el libro Emergencias: aplicaciones básicas para la elaboración de un manual de autoprotección con más de 370 preguntas y cuestiones tanto teóricas (con diversa tipología de resolución: elección múltiple, verdadero/falso y respuesta corta) como de aplicación práctica. El texto ha sido pensado para que sea de ayuda tanto al alumno de CF en Prevención de Riesgos Profesionales como al profesor que imparta el módulo de emergencias en este Ciclo ya que en los ejercicios de aplicación práctica (problemas) ambos grupos (alumno/profesor) encontrarán ayudas y consejos para la resolución de estos y propuestas de calificación según la dificultad del ejercicio. Además, cualquier lector diferente de este colectivo (estudiante de Máster o Postgrado Universitario en Prevención de Riesgos Laborales, profesional en esta especialidad o aficionado a esta materia) puede utilizar este libro como complemento a sus conocimientos y experiencia profesional. Las preguntas están organizadas en dos bloques diferenciados, el primero contiene el texto de las preguntas teóricas y de los problemas. El segundo bloque contiene esos mismos enunciados pero incluyendo las soluciones, para que el lector pueda escoger entre enfrentarse solo a cada una de las cuestiones, como si de un examen se tratara, o realizar los ejercicios partiendo de la respuesta.
