COBHC Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Does anyone here know where I would be able to find practice ILS scenarios, preferably online? I'm testing for a position with an ambulance company pretty soon and although I'm confident in my abilities, more practice can't hurt. I don't have anyone with similar or greater knowledge that I would be able to practice with in person, so I'm looking for the next best thing.

b.anderson Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 While I'm not sure about ILS scenarios, I can't imagine it would be much different. If I'm not able to find a particular scenario I try to create my own. I consider a particular injury/illness and go through what would be commonly seen. Hx, vitals, head-to-toe, etc. I ask myself questions, "What range would this patients vital signs be in for this injury/illness?" "What would I likely find on examination?" "Why would I find that?" "What's my treatment plan?" "Why have I chosen that as my treatment plan?" It's probably not for everyone, but I always found it useful to go in reverse. It helps me to understand the why, and not just the what. This forum also has a good scenarios section, http://www.emtcity.com/forum/35-scenarios/ -- I haven't personally participated yet, but I do plan on it. I've found many of the topics to be useful, some of them to be more obscure that I've never even thought of before. Good luck on test! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DFIB Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 You could start your own scenario and see where it leads. Scenarios are like a box of chocolates..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
