Last updated: November 7, 2026

Everything on this site and in our books, forms and checklists is educational information. It is not medical, legal, financial or other professional advice, and it does not replace a doctor, nurse, pharmacist, lawyer, emergency services or your local authorities.

In an emergency, call 911

If someone is hurt, sick, not breathing, in danger or exposed to smoke, gas or carbon monoxide, call 911 (or your local emergency number) first. Our books are for when help is delayed or far away, and for preparing ahead of time. They are never a reason to wait.

Health and herbal information

Home care, first aid and herbal information is general. Herbs and home remedies can interact with medicines and can be unsafe in pregnancy, while breastfeeding, for children and for people with some health conditions. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before you use any remedy, and never stop or change a prescribed medicine without your doctor.

Ranger

Ranger is an AI helper, not a doctor or any other professional. It can make mistakes. Check anything important against the books and with a qualified person.

Results vary

Every emergency, home, family and place is different. We can't promise that any method, plan or product will work in your situation or keep anyone safe. How you use this information is your choice and your responsibility.

Do it safely and legally

Some projects involve fire, fuel, electricity, tools, water from wild sources, wild plants or radios. Take care, follow the safety notes, and follow your local laws and codes for radios, fires, burning, foraging, fishing, hunting, building and wells.
