Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating:  out of 5 stars - It's the only choice
This is the textbook that all EMT-B classes use, it's really the only choice you have. I found the companion study guide very helpful for studying. The 9th edition includes a CD and the on-line resources were great too. I especially like the chapter on Terrorist response, rather interesting comment about society and the times we live in.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Great deal on textbook
This is the textbook required to take most of the EMT-B classes, and it was a great buy!



Rating:  out of 5 stars - All-In-All a good book for an EMT-B Course

Rating:  out of 5 stars - A great book for EMT's to be
This book shows you step by step on how to perform the duties of an EMT. From the legal issues, to the parts of the body, to patient assessment, to death, this book covers all the necessary topics of what EMT's will do on a regular basis. No matter how much training an EMT will get, they will not be prepared for every situation they encounter, but this book is a good tool to gain the knowledge on how to deal with most emergenices. It explains in detail and shows helpful pictures of things that are needed ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Everything you need to know to be an EMT-B
It has many illustrations, in depth anatomy coverage. However, sometimes there's critical scenarios that are past over very quickly, and you might not think it's important. Also, there should be some NREMT sample questions at the end of each question.
