Just wondering if anyone had any suggestions that would help with the learning process of all the drugs, doses, indications, contraindications for paramedic school...
I guess I am totally opposite of most. I hate the usage of Flash Cards. I much rather have my students learn the total pharmokinetics of the medication(s). When one has mastered this on how the medication truly works and the etiology of why the medication is ordered, then all one has to know is that the opposite effect would be contraindication(s), untoward reaction and standard dosages.
So many EMS students memorize medication(s) and it shows when one is asked questions regarding pharmacology.
