    Making mistakes in the EMS field

    According to the latest guidelines this should have been classed as a drowning. There is no such thing these days as a 'near' drowning. ALS should have been called etc. Lesson learned I hope.

    What to review when EMT-B class is over?

    Confused...I would have thought the psychmotor was taken BEFORE the NREMT. My course we did our final exam in front of a doctor and panel of instructors next day did our psychomoter exam THEN got the permission to test letter THEN we could apply to take the NREMT exam.
