Description
This well-respected and widely used resource is now updated to reflect that new 2005 emergency cardiac care guidelines. It prepares EMT-Basic students for state or national EMT-Basic certification exams. This edition presents key objectives of the national curriculum of the Emergency Medical Technician-Basic course. It incorporates more than 290 new questions similar to the EMT-B certification exam format -- multiple-choice questions, with fill-in-the-blank and discussion questions also provided. More than 1,100 questions in total are grouped according to subject in each chapter, followed by an answer key with rationale. Since most states mandate recertification for EMTs every two to four years, this text is also a good review for certified EMTs who need a concise refresher for recertification.
