EMS 152 - Emergency Medical Technician II


Credit Hours: 4
Billable Contact Hours: 4
Prerequisites: EMS 151  
Session Cycle: FW

This is the second in a series of four courses that will constitute a certificate as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT-B), making the student eligible for National Registry testing and eventual state licensure. In this class, students will receive the first set of skills required to be an EMT-B.  This starts with airway management and oxygen therapy.  Then students will begin assessing both medical and trauma patients.  Finally, these skills will be put into practice with certain special populations encountered in the field.  Students must complete lecture and laboratory tasks in all four courses and complete the clinical rotations in the third and fourth classes to be eligible for the national examination.
