Ian,

I am starting P school in 20 days and some odd hours (who's counting? ). I have been hitting the ol EMT text from back when, kinda helps a lot. As well as Pharm. flash cards that Mosby produces and all the other random texts I have received.

I have got to say though that the "Basic" material will probably lay that solid foundation (so I hear).

I hope the Mosby Vol. 2 Paramedic Practice isn't looked upon as a bad reference. Because, that is the required text for my school.

Here in Denver any pt. <12 or >60 gets immobilized if there is a mechanism that gives the index of suspicion for C-spine injury. Even if you "clear" their c-spine. Makes sense to me though when considering those age groups anatomical stages.

Type A personalities and constant dick measuring contests = fire service.
