Course Description:

This course will prepare students to provide emergency medical care to the sick and injured. The course content will be delivered through reading assignments, classroom lectures, handouts, workbooks, and practical exercises. Students are required to perform a hospital rotation and field rotations on an ambulance.  This prepares the student to take and pass the National Registry of EMT’s registration exam. Successful completion of the National Registry exam is required for Washington State certification.

This is a very difficult course of study!  The student should expect to spend a minimum of 3 to 4 hours of study time each day outside of the classroom.  Students, who have not had higher than average academic success in the past, will find this course very difficult.
