EMS Simulator

[ffemt8978]

This site has a free EMS simulator. You're given information about a call, and make treatment decisions based upon it.

It's pretty simple, but enjoyable (to an extent).

Great site, it has been around for many years.

I don't know if i would still say they are great. I've been waiting for a new sim for over a year now.

But I still enjoy playing all af the old ones.

If you have some time, www.nyerrn.com has some great sims. ALS, BLS, ACLS and more.

thanks for the tip on that site. that is a really good site for anyone who wants to play beyond their scope of practice.

Does any one know where I can find one of the pocket reference books for BLS or ALS, at this point I am not too picky I am just having a hard time locating one. I am looking for the book that has all of the basic reminders and drug info in it. One of the guys at work told me he got his at Gauz but I haven't been able to locate one with them....are they even called a "pocket reference"???? I found one that is like a palm pilot...pretty cool but, pretty expensive too!

Hey,

I would highly suggest purchasing one. Every single person I've worked with carries one. Most EMT-Basics actually decide to carry the ALS version, but that's up to you. I, as a basic, carry the BLS version.

Here are a few sources:

Galls BLS - 19.99 (http://www.galls.com/style.html?style=BK050&assort=general_catalog)
Galls ALS Field Guide - 19.99 (http://www.galls.com/style.html?style=EM124&assort=general_catalog)

BLS Field Guide - AllMed.net - 16.95 (http://www.allmed.net/catalog/showitem.php/3565)
ALS Version EMS Field Guide - AllMed - 16.95 (http://www.allmed.net/catalog/showitem.php/3564)

There are many other sources, just do a google search. Though the galls one costs more, Id go with them, they're a good company.

I hope that helps.

Thanks Matt. I did order one. I am not sure which one it is I found it on Saveslives.com I hope it is a good one. I ordered the BLS one I can't remember what brand it is but if it isn't a good one then I will just get another one. It sure is a bummer that you have to do most of the shopping on line for our stuff, there just isn't a good store in my area to go to for anything that has to do with EMS. I feel like a red headed step child, a nurse sure doesn't have any trouble finding a store around here :angry: I think we as Emergency workers get the "code brown" end of the stick :blink:

Great sites, both of them. I wish LessStress would come out with another, though, Mortimer reminds me of my old partner......

Yeah, I'm waiting... not holding my breath though!

Maybe we should all do a combined mass concerned citizen e-mailing to get them to produce some different senarios...?

These sites are great, I don't think I have any room left in my bookmark section, but thanks!

That was quick, I was just on there last week.

I tried to log on last night, I thought I had a bunch of spyware or something that was keeping me from viewing certain pages.. guess not. Bummer. :(
