    patient assessment...the house and monk way

    I was reading a thread about amazing body facts on here and came across a mention that a lack of leg hair on a male may well indicate a cardiac history.

    NREMT Basic, in reality

    Quizlet

    Has anyone here used the online flashcard site "Quizlet" for studying for exams/quizzes/NREMT testing? I have a few of the sets from the site, which is free, and have found them helpful. If you have tried it, do you think it helps? Do you have any sets you made that may help students here?

    I have tried to register to the site RescueExams.com; it was suggested on this site in a thread. It will not seem to let me...I have tried different browsers, different emails and contacting the owner and I got no reply. Has anyone else had this issue? Or would anyone who has an account there be...

    9 y/o female headache

    9 y/o female headache

    Granted, I am just a basic (well I finished and passed my basic class, just waiting to take NREMT) student, but it sounds to me like the flu. Did you see if she could move her chin?
