Practice taking vitals on friends and family. have assessment flashcards and have friends choose a random one...they describe symptoms and u asess.

Hey all! Well, I finally got hired. I have applied at various hospitals and clinics here in my area to no avail. I applied at a senior community as a Medtech and Caregiver, and was hired. I figure its a start, being that I have never had a job before, it will get me some experience and perhaps...

Does joining the NAEMT help in terms of getting a job? Like if a company, be it a clinic or ambulance company sees you are part of the NAEMT on your resume, will it look good?

I have my NREMT I85, but no state/county card/license; I am not currently looking to work for an ambulance company- I am looking to work in a hospital or a clinic...will my NREMT cert suffice or what do I need to do? Is there a test I have to take? If so, what is on the test?

Well, in just a few hours I shall be taking the test...any last words of wisdom or advice?

Nope. I mean they are not to me.

Can you give me an example of the level of difficulty I will face tommorow?

I thought we could not post NREMT questions...these are from class.

In an effort to see what I should expect, below I have posted questions from MY IN CLASS FINAL EXAM, not NREMT questions; perhaps someone could kindly give me an idea as to if the questions are harder than the NREMT 85 test or easier etc. A single ectopic impulse that originates in either...

Anyone?
