For EMT Basic courses.
Emergency Care 9/E has prepared more students to pass state competency exams and/or the National Registry Exam than any other text on the market with well-organized, clearly presented content, thorough coverage of patient assessment, an accessible reading level, high quality artwork, and outstanding skill scans of equipment and procedures. Case studies and practical tips from the field tie chapter concepts to real world applications. Each chapter now sends students to the Companion Website where there are links to EMS-related sites. A new multimedia support package provides extra information to help students master concepts.
