EMT 212 Emergency Medical Technician III (5)


Prereq: Successful completion of EMT 211  or current enrollment in EMT 210  or EMT 211 .

Emergency Medical Technician students apply knowledge-based treatment to patients that are responsive/unresponsive using scenarios in monitored lab settings. Students differentiate between “unaltered mental status” and “altered mental status” to assess the nature and seriousness of a patient’s condition or injuries. Skills learned in class labs are utilized by students in an Emergency Department rotation. Students are evaluated for cognitive and practical competency based on National Registry of Emergency Medical Services requirements.
