At this point in the program that the paramedic student has completed the majority of their training, it's time to "put the whole experience together." While the other units and divisions were thfundamentals of the "game," this unit on assessment based management contains informationand practice scenarios to help students apply those fundamentals. In effect, it's the "practicescrimmage" to take the classroom, lab and clinical skills and have students put them all together into an effective field approach. It contains a didactic presentation on "putting it all together" and then shifts to common chief complaint categories. Then the students practice acting as a team leader and partner doing assessment, initial resuscitation, scene choreography, treatment, and patient presentation. Most of the common chief complaints that paramedics will encounter in the field are included in this unit.
-
2.00 Credits
