ESSENTIALS FOR THE EMERGENCY MEDICAL RESPONDER, 2nd Edition

This book is a multiuse book that functions as an EMR textbook, Resource, and Study Manual. We had the vision to think in new and challenging ways to create a concise, easily comprehensible, and organized book which truly meets the needs of today's Emergency Medical Responder (EMR). We have used several different EMR books first responder in the education of EMR's and none has measured up to what the Essentials for the Emergency Medical Responder 2nd Edition can provide.
This book stresses all the domains of learning. The cognitive domain is addressed through the acquisition of knowledge in an easy to understand the narrative. The psychomotor domain is emphasized through a detailed description of skills. The affective domain is an essential theme of this textbook by emphasizing "Dare to Care".
This book emphasizes and gives you a foundation to acquire the critical thinking skills necessary to provide the most meaningful care to the patient. We discuss the "why" of patient care so you can better understand the reasons for the care you give in order to make the necessary decisions.
The knowledge you gain from this book is a solid stepping stone to move to advanced levels of EMS. It is a valuable resource and study manual for taking written and psychomotor advanced certification examinations. It is also a stepping stone for you to incorporate these skills and knowledge base in any other area of health care you choose, whether career or volunteer.
The Essentials for the EMR 2nd Edition, meets and exceeds the current National EMS Education Standards, as presented by The National Highway and Traffic Administration, The National Registry of EMT's (NREMT) and local and state requirements for the proficiency of the EMR.
