You might like to check out the new improved impacted pocket packs.

Free to download, you simply print out a copy of the pdf file, and with a few folds and a single cut you will have your own pocket reference pack.
Forget all those laminated cards you have dangling around your personage. This is a simple paper booklet. Use it until it is worn out and then print out a fresh copy.

Folding/cutting instructions are supplied (courtesy of pocketmod.com).  Prefer some other information in the pack? Drop me a line1 and we can update it.

Download the ADULT reference pack.

Download the PAEDIATRIC reference pack.

  1. or alternately, you can make up your own pack to share. As you can see there’s nothing to it really. []

    • Rachel said: I agree with you Fabbia. No matter how much we try to be good at educating our patients, at the end it is still up to the patient’s decision whether to follow what we have said or not.
