The CBRN Survival Guide (Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear) is a straight forward guide that offers clear and concise advice for surviving any toxic hazard.

The guide provides background information on the spectrum of CBRN hazards and offers sensible first aid advice on casualties of blast and toxicological effects. The guide is designed for those staff who may be caught within the edge of the hazard area from a CBRN incident, and as such assumes a basic level of CBRN knowledge.

As you read the guide, get to know the layout and where to find specific subject matter. In an emergency, the "don’t panic" section provides a very quick reminder of the immediate actions. Given an indication of the type of hazard, safety data will provide a ready reckoner of the likely extent of damage and downwind extent of danger

You should assume that nowhere is safe unless you have the appropriate technological sensor equipment; you should always refer to the emergency services for on-scene advice and guidance. This guide is provided to compliment the awareness training you should already have received and acts as a useful aide memoir on the correct procedures to follow in the event of a CBRN incident.
