The Student Workbook for Emergency Medical Responder: Your First Response in Emergency Care, Student Workbook, Eighth Edition, takes education beyond the textbook and classroom. Its exercises are designed to reinforce factual knowledge, encourage critical thinking and problem solving, and ensure comprehension of patient assessment and treatment. The goal is to prepare students to achieve EMR certification and succeed as professional EMS clinicians. To do so, and to help meet the needs of different learning styles, each Emergency Medical Responder: Your First Response in Emergency Care Student Workbook, Eighth Edition, contains a variety of exercises and question types. Examples include the following:
- Matching, Multiple Choice, True/False, and Fill-in exercises: Students answer questions intended to test their recall and recognition of the chapter’s key lessons.
- You Make the Call and Short Answer exercises: Students use their knowledge and critical-thinking skills to manage topic-specific emergencies.
- Skill Drills: Students apply their training by completing and properly sequencing EMR skills.
- Labeling: Students demonstrate their knowledge of human anatomy by properly labeling illustrations.
Page references to Emergency Medical Responder, Eighth Edition, are provided for every question in the Student Workbook. Perforated pages make it easier for you to hand in homework assignments.
