Hi Everyone,
I just took the NREMT exam today, and it was a real eye opener for me. I don't know my results yet, but I'm fairly certain I failed. On the plus side, the exam exposed a lot of holes in my knowledge that I can patch up before I get anywhere near another living patient or ER!
I don't want to go into a long rant here. All I'll say is that I personally don't like it, and I'm wondering if anyone can recommend an easier to read, more concise source of information on pre-hospital care?
I basically want to work on improving my knowledge of everything in the Brady book without using the Brady book. :unsure:
In particular I want to work on NREMT style medical and emergency scenarios and to develop a deeper understanding of the various diseases and viruses mentioned in the book.
Goals
I've got two goals in improving my knowledge on these issues.
1. Pass the NREMT next time around (if I failed it this time)
2. Provide excellent quality pre-hospital care
Personally, 2 is much more important to me than 1, but I'll never get to do 2 if I don't do 1 first. (My county requires that I pass the NREMT before I apply for work as an EMT in the county.)
