Hello everyone! Brandon here... I was 3 weeks from testing for my EMT Cert, when life threw a curve ball and I had to drop.
Father was an EMT back in the 70's/early 80's. He helped form our fire/rescue here in town. I know enough to be useful, but not trained enough to take the lead.
I have a few (million) questions, and not sure where they should go.
1) Are these worth buying for an addition to a "Emergency vehicle bag"?
"Emergency & critical care pocket guide"
"Emt field guide, ALS version."
2) Anyone have recommendations if the above texts aren't the best? If anybody has other recommendations, I would greatly appreciate your input!....
Note: I'm not planning on going to be a non-certified (dangerous idiot) rogue EMT or anything. My primary function will always be keeping other people out of EMS' way, and doing what I can to help and not hinder.
Better yet, My wife has multiple medical issues and is a bilateral below knee amputee. So if a situation occurs where I need to help my wife or self....Would these references useful?
So, basically- I'm needing references for good pocket guides or cheat sheets. Good quick reference material/study tools to help me get certified.
Discussion and input is welcome here!
Sorry for all that, but thank you in advance. :)
