    Abdominal, GI and GU Injures for the EMT

    In this episode, we talk about injures to the abdomen, the GI and GU areas from the EMT standpoint. When learning about the human body, a lot of folks become confused with the organs inside the abdomen. This episode provides an important realization that being familiar with the locations of the organs will help predict those patients who can experience shock early on and those who may develop life-threatening infections later on.

    Spinal and Traumatic Brain Injuries for the EMT

    In this episode, we talk about spinal injuries and the different types of Traumatic Brain Injuries from the EMT standpoint. This area is often one that is confusing for many EMT students. Because many testing locations will require the demonstration of Supine Immobilization and potentially seated immobilization. These are skills that are not utilized as much anymore. However, it is still a skill that must be taught to evaluate a need.  Referenced the National Model Clinical Guidelines www.nasemso.org   The opinions expressed are those of the host and do not represent opinions or views of the host's employers.

    Soft Tissue, Bleeding, and Orthopedic Injuries for EMTs

    This episode is dealing with bleeding, soft tissue, and orthopedic injuries. These areas frequently overlap each other. To me, it makes sense that these areas are then combined or talked about together. This is a longer episode that covers a lot of material. I struggled to decide on breaking it up but I didn't like the places I was going to put the breaks! SO I am leaving that up to you the listener! Enjoy!   The opinions expressed are those of the host and do not represent opinions or views of the host's employers.
