As an EMT I've noticed a lack of structure in most EMT classes (haven't attended Paramedic School yet) both from my own experience and after reviewing the class structures of different New Hires, EMT Ride Alongs, etc… Teaching in general interest me and I have found that most classes do not address enough of the “Core Principals” (e.g. Ability to track a Drop of Blood through the Body, Step by Step Assessment and call run through, etc.) and repetition of the manipulative skills we are excepted to master after the usual ‘once and done’ instructor run thru. Given the opportunity how would you conduct your own EMT/Paramedic Program taking into account but not limited to the following…..
-How would you structure your EMT or Paramedic Class?
Ex.
-How often(frequency during the week)and how long would your class be in total?
-How would you structure your didactic/skills Tests?
-What would your “FINAL” be?
-Anything else I forgot to mention or that you would like to add?
